History
According to the nomination form, the house was probably built by Peter P. Demarest. It remained in the Demarest family until around 1900, when it was sold to Hugh J. Grant, who was mayor of New York City from 1889 to 1892. Later Peter P. Demarest's grandson, John G. Demarest, acquired the house.
