Excellent job on your video . I enjoyed it very much . When I was a kid I grew up in that area at 579 Seely Avenue . It was in the early 70's . I'm just glad the Historical Society keeps up this exceptionally nice building .
James Hill was chosen to be the handler/controller/overseer of Minnesota. It came with a large sum of money and of course he got to choose what house he wanted to live in. Hill was born about 100 years too late to witness the building of this house. He took his free money and redecorated it to his liking. Horse and buggy era did not build buildings like the Hill House.

I was in the house on a field trip and I am still amazed by it.
Mary Hill was such a thrill in Ramsey hill park
I've been to that house it is cool inside and some of the stuff they had used back in the day was cool to see.
Cool history..have yet to visit even though I've passed this place many times
James Jerome Hill is my great Uncle! 🥰
He’s my great grandfather on my dads side ! Maybe we’re cousins !

The house was not built by Hill. Hill just refurnished the place.
He paid for it all and was the owner, in general terms thats what is meant by "he built it"
Agreed ...
Flat Water Films I just watched your James J Hill video and it’s much better😎👍🏻
