The Roberts-Quay House is an historic, American home that is located in the Washington Square West neighborhood of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The original section was built circa 1850; it was then expanded in 1889, 1906, 1921, and 1928.
It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.
This historic residence was the home of Matthew Quay (1833–1904), a United States Senator from Pennsylvania. Its original section measures forty-seven feet by fifty-one feet, and is a four-story building with a brownstone face and sides of stucco, scored as brownstone. It has a basement, attic, and cupola and was designed in a Renaissance Revival style. The expansions to the north added one hundred feet to the depth of the building.[1]
The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.
