The Philip and Carrie Lehman House at 7 West 54th Street between Fifth Avenue and the Avenue of the Americas (Sixth Avenue) in Midtown Manhattan, New York City, was built in 1899-1900, designed by John H. Duncan in the Beaux-Arts style. Lehman was the son of a founding partner of the Lehman Brothers investment bank, and later became a partner there himself. His son Robert, who inherited the townhouse when Philip died in 1947, was an art collector; his collection was later given to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, along with interiors from this bulding.
