The Kreuzer-Pelton House is a Dutch-influenced fieldstone house, erected in 1722 as a one room cottage, which has been added to in two successive stages, just before the American Revolution in 1770, and in 1836. It is designated as a New York City landmark. The house was built by Joseph Rolph.

During the American Revolutionary War, Tory militia commander Cortlandt Skinner used the house as his headquarters. William IV of the United Kingdom was a guest at the house.
