History

The original part of this house was built by Robert W. Gill soon after he purchased the lot in 1828. About thirty years later, it was enlarged by Samuel B. Massey. Local textile manufacturer and banker Col. Leroy Springs remodeled the house in 1906-1907. Springs' son Elliott, a noted author and World War I flying ace, was born here in 1896. The house became city hall after a 1957 lease-purchase agreement with the city of Lancaster.
