Built for Henry J. Lynch around 1867, the house is on the List of City of Pittsburgh historic designations as well as the List of Pittsburgh History and Landmarks Foundation Historic Landmarks. It was acquired by the Ursuline Sisters in the 1890s and used as a Catholic girls' school: The Ursuline Academy for Young Women (1895-1993). The Ursulines made a number of additions to the original structure, including an auditorium/dormitory, chapel, and a dining hall. The Ursuline Sisters sold the building in the early 1990s.
