English: Selma Mansion was built by Andrew Porter in 1794, the land on which it stands being acquired in 1786, the house being built around a small structure that stood there previously. Porter was one of the founders of the U.S. Marine Corps and Pennsylvania's Surveyor General. The mansion is in the Federal Style, although the interior woodwork and proportions are Colonial or Georgian. The porches are Italianate, having been added in the mid-19th century. The Norristown Preservation Society was formed to purchase the house and transform it into a focal point of pride for not only residents of the county seat, but all of Montgomery County, Pennsylvania and the nation.
