The history of the Bond house reflects the economic history of this part of Philadelphia.
The central core of the Bond house was built in 1769 by Dr. Thomas Bond Sr.,
a prominent physician and founder of Pennsylvania Hospital, which was chartered in 1751.
In 1824, a four-foot extension with a new facade was added to the west side, and in the 1830s to 1840s, the building was extended eastward at the rear.
