A carpenter for approximately a decade, and a member of the city's Carpenters' Company, Justus offered expertise as well as reputation that facilitated an agreement with the difficult Mr. Brown, owner of the lot. His stature among artisans enabled Justus to approach Brown, a "gentlemen," not from a position of equality, but from one of credibility. . . . ------------------------ Note from descendant: I have (John) Philip Justus born 11/26/1769 (First Reformed Church records), son of George & Margaretha Justus.

Title A name given to the resource Justus, Phillip Description An account of the resource Phillip Justus was born in 1769 and was elected to the Carpenters’ Company in 1801 after being proposed by Jacob Lybrand. From 1794 to 1800 Justus was listed as a carpenter residing at 115 N. 5th street. His most famous contribution to Philadelphia’s built landscape was the Naval shipyard built at the end of Washington street. These two wooden ship houses were started in 1821 and were some of the largest structures in Philadelphia until the end of their lifespan a half-century later. In 1816, Justus was credited with designing the roof of Washington Hall, a short-lived auditorium that could seat 6,000 people. William Strickland had Philip Justus serve as the superintendent of carpenters for the construction of the Second Bank of the United States, a famous example of early Greek Revival architecture. Justus received payment for “mahogany desks and doors as per contract” and a substantial payment of $351.10 for “ carpenter’s work, shingling watch house, hoisting machine and mahogany work including mantels inside banking room.” Justus also worked for the Mutual Assurance Company providing surveys for the organization. His most famous example was a survey of the Graff house, also known as the Declaration House, which served as Thomas Jefferson’s residence when he wrote the Declaration of Independence. Justus lived a long and reputable serving many positions within the administration of the Carpenters’ Company and found financial success as a carpenter, surveyor and businessman. He died in 1861 at the age of 91.<br /><br />Biography from the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.philadelphiabuildings.org/pab/app/ar_display.cfm?ArchitectId=3AF8A8EE-95BC-40F3-8270B85A63B185F7">Philadelphia Architects and Buildings</a>&nbsp;site, a project of the&nbsp;<a href="http://www.philaathenaeum.org/">Athenaeum of Philadelphia</a>.

Eldest son of Matthias and Mary (Swift) Keen, was born in Philadelphia and apprenticed to Robert Smith (q.v.). He became a member of The Company in 1772 and rapidly joined the inner circle of master builders; he served The Company as a committee member or officer from the time of his election as Warden in 1776 to 1785. In 1801 he became Vice President of The Company. Nothing is known of Keen's architectural work, but he was an "encourager" of the Philadelphia edition of Abraham Swan "The British Architect" (printed by R. Bell for J. Norman, 1775), the first book on architecture printed in America. According to the 19th century biographical sketch, Keen "sided with the Colonies in the War of the Revolution, and fought in Captain Richard Humphreys's Company, in General Cadwalader's Division of Pennsylvania Militia, at the battle of Princeton, where he was slightly wounded by a fence rail splintered by a cannon ball, while giving some information about the enemy to General Washington." ----------------------- See C.E.
