Johnson House (University of Vermont)
Johnson House is a campus building of the University of Vermont, which is located at 617 Main Street, on the southwestern corner of the intersection of University Heights in Burlington, Vermont.
It was built in 1806 as part of a 22-acre farm by Moses Catlin on the parcel where Morrill Hall currently stands. Due to the forthcoming construction of Morrill Hall, the house was moved in 1906 to 590 Main Street. The house was again moved on 9 July 2005 across the street to its current location at 617 Main Street, on the southwest side of the intersection of University Heights.
Catlin sold the house and property to John Johnson in 1809. Johnson was an accomplished architect and engineer who designed and oversaw the construction of the original college building, its replacement, as well as Grasse Mount in 1804, and Pomeroy Hall in 1828.
The John Johnson House has housed the Gund Institute for Ecological Economics since 2002.
