Riverlore Mansion - 2723 Washington Ave.

 



Riverlore is a stately white French Second Empire Style Mansion nestled quietly in Cairo's residential section at 28th and Washington Avenues, once known as Millionaire's Row.

Riverlore is an 11 room brick home built in 1865 by Capt. William Parker Halliday, a prominent Cairo businessman and Riverboat Captain.  Halliday resided at his beloved Riverlore for some 34 years.

Riverlore covers 3/4 of an acre and with its exquisitely maintained, landscaped grounds complete with magnolias, flowering trees, shrubs and a 100 years old Gingko tree.  It is by far the most picturesque mansion in the Cairo community.
