History

The residence was built in 1901–03, replacing two older houses on the site, and was designed in the Beaux-Arts style by Hoppin & Koen, who had studied at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, and worked in the office of McKim, Mead & White.[2] The home was built for James F. D. Lanier, son of banker Charles D. Lanier, and his wife Harriet Bishop Lanier, daughter of Heber R. Bishop.

The house was designated a New York City landmark in 1979, and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
