Description: "Nestled on the edge of modern downtown Cheyenne, visitors will find a historic gem. The Wyoming Historic Governor's Mansion, built in 1904, stands proudly in a neighborhood that is now a mix of modern facilities and older homes and offices. The mansion was home to the state's chief executive and the first family for over seventy years. After a major restoration effort early this century, the home now tells the story of those families for thousands of visitors each year"--Provided by publisher.
