Summary[edit]

Description
English: Picture of the John Woods House located at 4604 Monongahela Street in the Hazelwood neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on March 20, 2010. This vernacular style stone house was built in 1792, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. John Woods (1761-1816) was a political leader, a Federalist, and a member of a prominent founding Pittsburgh family. Woods was the son of Colonel George Woods of Bedford County, PA. The elder Woods laid out the plan for the City of Pittsburgh in 1784. John did the actual drafting, and the plan is referred to as "John Woods plan of Pittsburgh." John Woods was elected to the Pennsylvania Senate in 1797, and was elected as a Representative to the Fourteenth United States Congress, holding office from March 4, 1815 to March 3, 1817 (though, due to illness, he never attended sessions). The house stayed in the Woods family until 1885. It is said that composer Stephen Foster was friends with the Woods family, and that he composed the song "Nelly Bly" in the house.
