From 1890 to 1920, the house was a gathering place for artists, writers and editors, and scores of art students came to study with leading American Impressionists John Henry Twachtman, J. Alden Weir, Theodore Robinson, and Childe Hassam.
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.
It was further declared a National Historic Landmark in 1991.
