History

The house was built on what was once a large farm covering over 100 acres, named the West Farm after John West. On April 4, 1862, Frederick Behr purchased a small plot of this farm and may have built the house around that time. Behr was a German immigrant and raised flowers. After his death in 1902, the property was divided among his daughters. One part later became the carriage house and stables for the Murry Guggenheim House.
