This home was built in 1816 by Major Lenox who held a secretarial position in the U.S. Embassy in London. When Major Lenox died his niece, Miss Sarah Lukens Keene, inhabited the house. It then passed to the Episcopal Church to be used for elderly single ladies. It was removed to make room for the Margaret R. Grundy Memorial Library in 1966.
