This house was built in 1892-93 for J.B. Lippincott, the Philadelphia publisher. Lippincott was married to Joanna Wharton, daughter of Joseph Wharton, who had built Horsehead ten years earlier on the east side of Mackerel Cove. Meeresblick (i.e. Bay View), as the Lippincott house was originally called, was designed by Pritchett and Pritchett of Philadelphia and built by Charles Soule of Jamestown.
