- House built for Pieter Lefferts, a lieutenant in the Continental Army during the Revolution. His grandaughter, Gertrude Lefferts Vanderbilt, recorded the history of her family, her community and her landmark home in the Social History of Flatbush, published in 1881.
- In 1917, the estate of John Lefferts offered the home with the condition that it be moved off its original location. The City accepted it and brought the house to Prospect Park in 1918. In 1920 it opened as a museum.
