Historical Reference: From 1803 to 1805, officer Major William Price built a house on a quarter-block lot of farmland at what was then the western edge of Richmond. The fifth U.S. president, James Monroe, lived in the house in 1829 while presiding over Virginia’s Constitutional Convention. Subsequent owners, including Civil War veteran, lawyer and philanthropist James Dooley (who also owned Maymont), added a wing, altered the style and refined the decor.
