The Nathaniel Drake House is located in Plainfield, Union County, New Jersey, United States. The house was built in 1746 and was added to the National Register of Historic Places on June 19, 1973. It now operated as the Drake House Museum and is the headquarters of the Historical Society of Plainfield, though the building is owned by the City of Plainfield. The most famous piece in the Society's collection is the painting, "The Death of General Sedgwick" by Julian Scott.

History

Issac Drake built the home in 1746 for his son Nathaniel Drake on the Old York Road. The original home was a {{frac|1|1|2}}-story building with four rooms and a lean-to kitchen. George Washington stayed at the home during the Battle of Short Hills in 1777.[3] John S. Harberger purchased the home in 1864 and remodeled the building. Harberger's additions to the building included a mansard roof, ballroom, a 3-story tower in the rear of the building and a turret on the side of the home.[4]
