White returned to Buffalo to design a shingle style residence for Erzelia Metcalfe at 125 North Street in 1884 (commissioned in July 1882), next door to the plot that Williams later had their home built.

George and Charles were sons of industrialist Gibson T. Williams, and had owned what was reputedly the largest tannery in the United States in Salamanca.

[10] In addition, the Burchfield Penney Art Center at Buffalo State College rebuilt the Metcalfe House's dining room and library in Rockwell Hall.

[11] Delaware North renovated the house at a cost of $6 million before selling it to Varity Corp. in 1990 to serve as its world headquarters.

Varity removed the parking lot and installed a garden and lighted fountain located in a granite courtyard.
