The living room of the ­Edwardses’ porticoed mansion has an “all-white décor and large windows as if to never lose a view of the sky.”

It is lined with elegant porticoed 19th Century houses and foreign embassies clustered around a shared garden, a stone's throw from Buckingham Palace.

Lincoln sells, so signs bearing his name lure tourists from a nearby interstate highway to the porticoed capitol building where he served.
