President Harrison’s Indiana Homes Gets Facelift

The one-time Indiana home of the nation’s ninth president is getting a $1.2 million restoration that will spruce up the more than 200-year-old mansion’s main floor with new windows and porches.

Contractors recently started working on Grouseland, the Vincennes residence that was William Henry Harrison’s home when he was governor of the Indiana Territory.

Harrison was elected U.S. president in 1840.
