Condition History
In 1874 the south wing was added to the original 1857 structure, based on original architectural plans and constructed in the same material and style as the original building. While the exterior has been little altered since being built, the interior was converted for administrative use in 1948 after being acquired by the Newark College of Engineering (now the New Jersey Institute of Technology). Restorations were made in 2005, headed by Cody Eckert & Associates.
