Seven Mile House

Seven Mile House, built in the 1840s on land first purchased by Abram Horback in 1835, was a well-known tavern. Located on the sourth side of the Pike, at Kelly's Lane (now Penn Ave at Hay St.), it was diagonally across the street from the Seven Mile Stone. The house was a popular stopping place for turnpike travelers and a favorite resort for city families during the summer.
