Home›Cultural and Institutional Buildings›Building Family›Museums and Galleries›Museums of North AmericaGroupMuseums of North AmericaMembers of this atlas's Museums and Galleries group whose subject this atlas records as standing in the United States or Canada: the largest of this group's four regional children, reflecting how heavily this atlas's museum coverage under Cultural and Institutional Buildings skews toward United States entries, many of them historic houses now operated as house museums. Belongs here: any museum, gallery or comparable institution this group already gathers that this atlas records as standing in the United States or Canada. Does not belong here: a museum standing anywhere else, gathered under one of this group's three other regional siblings.FactsBrowse BySourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonEra of EmergenceWell-attested1939 1Origin RegionWell-attestedUnited States (New York City) 1Browse ByAll Museums of North AmericaMuseums of North America52 entriesMuseums of North AmericaFilter Results52 entriesBuilding TypeAllDwelling (1)House (21)Mansion (3)Museum (29)Plantation House (1)Villa (1)PlaceAllAngola (1)Canada (2)Denmark (1)Germany (3)South Carolina (1)United Kingdom (2)United States (42)StyleAllAmerican Colonial Architecture (3)Beaux-Arts Architecture (1)Brutalism (1)Colonial Revival Architecture (2)Craftsman Style Architecture (1)Deconstructivism (1)Dutch Colonial Architecture (1)Expressionist Architecture (1)Federal Architecture (7)Futurist Architecture (1)Georgian Architecture (2)Gothic Architecture (1)Greek Revival Architecture (4)Greek Revival Architecture in North America (1)High-Tech Architecture (1)Modernist Architecture (9)Neo-Futurism (1)Neoclassical Architecture (4)Organic Architecture (1)Postmodern Architecture (2)Prairie School (1)Queen Anne Style Architecture (2)Rustic Architecture (1)Completed YearAll1101 (1)1725 (1)1740 (1)1768 (1)1776 (1)1782 (1)1787 (1)1793 (2)1794 (1)1807 (1)1816 (1)1827 (2)1830 (1)1832 (1)1835 (1)1836 (1)1853 (2)1865 (1)1870 (1)1871 (1)1880 (1)1882 (2)1888 (1)1893 (1)1896 (1)1906 (1)1910 (2)1913 (1)1917 (1)1918 (1)1920 (1)1921 (1)1929 (1)1937 (1)1939 (1)1953 (1)1958 (1)1959 (1)1968 (1)1972 (1)1976 (1)1977 (1)1978 (1)1987 (1)1997 (1)1999 (1)2001 (1)2003 (1)Standing StatusAllStanding (52)ArchitectAllFrank Lloyd Wright (1)I.
