Justus Ramsey Stone House
Justus Ramsey Stone House, Stone residence from 1855 in Saint Paul, US.
The two-story stone building features light gray quarry-faced limestone walls constructed with ashlar-coursed methods and lime mortar at 252 West 7th Street.
The structure, built by Justus Cornelius Ramsey who purchased the land for 60 dollars, stands as the oldest remaining house in Saint Paul, Minnesota.
Between 1890 and 1933, the house became home to numerous African American families, including former enslaved individuals and railway porters working for major companies.
The exterior of this National Register of Historic Places structure remains visible from the street, though interior access is not available to visitors.
The building faces reconstruction plans following a north wall collapse in 2022, with preservationists working to relocate it within Saint Paul.
