Hint: built pre-1900
Michigan? - just a guess...
No. But warm. Twas somebody's mansion.
hint: has a Civil War connection.
Another hint: car manufacturer
Lincoln?
No, not Lincoln. He was president during the Civil War, but that is not really a link to this mansion.

It's in the lower list (defunct).

I've given enough info that a google search of several of the keywords will give it up.

Steve posted this first on 11/24/13

I resurfaced and had it figured out on 1/15/14

wagga posts the (obvious) aerial clue on 4/30/14

must break the record for longest WITWHH, not for difficulty, but apparent lack of active participants. I've dropped off to looking at it once every 2 weeks or so just to see if it has resurrected. Surprised to see this today.
