Mount Vernon Mansion replicas are faithful copies or buildings inspired byMount Vernon, the mansion ofU.S. PresidentGeorge Washington inFairfax County, Virginia, United States. Such buildings usually feature Mount Vernon's iconic piazza but might also copy its cupola, distinct dimensions, red-white-and-green color scheme, asymmetrical window distribution, or three-part organization.[1]

George Washington's Mount Vernon and architectural historian Lydia Mattice Brandt begana digital humanities project that collects information on Mount Vernon replicas. It crowd-sources information and locates Mount Vernon look-alikes on an interactive map.
