Robert Storer Stephenson (1858–1929) was an American architect who was active in the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries. Among numerous private and commercial buildings of that time, he is particularly known for designing two mansions: industrialist Frederick F. Brewster's Tudor-revival house in New Haven's Edgerton Park (completed 1909; demolished 1964): 4, 6 and "Wrexleigh," attorney John Anson Garver's "cottage" on Oyster Bay Cove, on Long Island (completed c.1913). He is also known for the distinctive design of the Brewster Building in Queens, New York.
