The Pine Street Meeting House, which was the home meeting of Jonathan Evans, was used by Friends of the Southern District until the 1830s when the Orange Street MH was constructed on Washington Square. I don't have the date of construction with me at work, but I believe it was in the mid-eighteenth century. The Pine Street MH stood empty most of the time from 1835 until it was demolished in 1861. A photograph was taken of it just before demolition which appears in one of the books of early Philadelphia photographs. Pine Street was an example of the Cottage Plan with a pyramidal roof. Some architectural historians classify it as an example of the Square Plan, but I believe that all these square buildings such as Sadsbury and the Bank MH are a subcategory of the Cottage Plan because they had a similar interior layout and English antecedents.
