He was one of the founders of the Stern Brothers department store and was the father of Robert B. Stearns, who became a prominent financier and co-founded Bear Stearns in 1923. The mansion was later owned by businessman Thomas Fortune Ryan. ^[1] The house was demolished in 1949 to make way for an apartment building.
