The Bacon-Merchant-Moss House is a historic house located at 32 Cottage Street in Lockport, New York.
Description and history
It is a two-story, Federal style stone structure built in 1832. A narrow attic crawlspace is believed to have been used to hide slaves escaping to Canada on the Underground Railroad. The YWCA purchased the building in 1927, and it continues to be owned by that organization. It is one of approximately 75 stone residences remaining in the city of Lockport.[2]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on May 30, 2007.[1]
