Bacon-Merchant-Moss House
Bacon-Merchant-Moss House, Federal architecture residence in Lockport, New York, US.
The three-bay stone structure at 32 Cottage Street features coursed rock-faced ashlar stonework, a Federal-style cornice, and gable returns.
Built in 1832 by Gillette Bacon, the house changed ownership to Dr. George Merchant in 1837 and later to Abijah Moss in 1861.
The narrow attic crawlspace within this stone residence served as a concealment area for people escaping through the Underground Railroad network.
The YWCA maintains ownership of the building since 1927, continuing its legacy of community service and social support activities.
During World War I, this Federal-style residence functioned as the headquarters for the Lockport chapter of the American Red Cross.
