Once part of a mansion row, the home of Sherman D. Phelps is the last of its neighbors.

Construction began in 1870 and the Phelps family moved in 1871. The house is filled with marble floors, exquisite carved woodwork, period lighting fixtures, and period furniture. It also houses a collection of artwork, all donated by Monday Afternoon Club members.

Sherman D. Phelps was a successful banker, businessman, and mayor of the newly incorporated City of Binghamton. His house is a legacy that tells of a time when Binghamton was growing in wealth, culture, and population.

The Phelps Mansion Museum is also an excellent example of the talent of one of New York State’s most famous 19th-century architects, Isaac G. Perry. Perry was also known for his work on the New York State Capitol, as well as many buildings in the Binghamton area.
