Despite never practicing medicine, Dr. Emlen Physick meaningfully affected the Cape May medical community.

Built in 1879, the 18-room mansion is an architectural wonder built by famed American architect Frank Furness and is one of the best examples of Victorian Stick Style architecture in the country.
