Relocating in 1912 to this present site on Agron Road in West Jerusalem. The current Consulate was built in 1868 by the German Lutheran missionary Ferdinand Vester, whose family and associates built many of the Arab-style homes in Jerusalem (particularly in the nearby German Colony near the train station), as well as the American Colony Hotel. The building was one of the first houses constructed outside the Old City walls, built at the same time Moses Montefiore founded Yemin Moshe on the hillside between the King David Hotel and the Old City. The original Consulate had only two stories; a third story was added in the early twentieth century. The main building houses both the Consul General?s residence and office space for Consulate employees.
