Hervey Ely House, Greek Revival residence in Rochester, United States.
The Hervey Ely House features Doric columns, entablatures, and pilasters across its brick structure covered in stucco at 138 Troup Street.
Built in 1837, the house belonged to flour mill operator Hervey Ely, who transported grain through the Erie Canal during Rochester's industrial growth period.
The Daughters of the American Revolution acquired the property in 1920, transforming it into a chapter house dedicated to preserving American history.
The house maintains regular visiting hours as part of the Third Ward Historic District, with guided tours available through the local DAR chapter.
The interior contains original marble fireplaces and intricate plaster decorations documented by the Historic American Buildings Survey after 1933.
