Petersburg, Virginia - Trapezium House Closed The Trapezium House has been sold and is no longer
open to the public. That was all the info I could get out of the nice
women at the Siege Museum down the
street. You can still view the house from the outside, of course, but
I would think the inside is probably a lot more interesting since, as
you can see, it's not true that
there are NO right angles. The walls aren't parallel, but that's about
all you can tell from the outside. [Dean Jeffrey, 10/13/2001][RA: Charles O'Hara had his house built in 1817 without parallel walls because his West Indian servant told him that such a house could not harbor evil spirts.]
