What is Ballantine, John, House?

The John Ballantine House is a historic house museum at 49 Washington Street in the Washington Park section of Newark, Essex County, New Jersey, United States.

The house was designated a National Historic Landmark for its architecture, and for the completeness of the documentary record accompanying its construction and alteration.
