About The Bliss MansionThe Bliss Mansion, on the northeast corner of Robinson and North Mountain Streets (technically at 608 Elizabeth Street, just east of the Governor's Mansion), was built by Duane L. Bliss, lumber and railroad magnate, in 1879, and was in its time the most modern and largest home in Nevada, a Victorian home built in the Italianate style. It was the first home in Nevada entirely piped for gas lighting, and was built entirely of clear wood. It has 15 rooms and 9 marble fireplaces.
