The Federal-period mansion at 31 Washington Square in Salem was built in about 1811 for Stephen White. It was also the home of merchants John W. Rogers (from 1831 to 1844) and Thomas P. Pingree (from 1844 to 1858). Later owned by members of the Lord family and known as the White-Lord House, the mansion has a ell with an elaborate second entrance to the house facing Salem Common.
