Paul Revere House
 

Built around 1680, this house is the oldest building in downtown Boston, and served as the home of silversmith Paul Revere and his family from 1770 to 1800. Paul Revere is famous for his "midnight ride" to Lexington, Massachusetts informing Samuel Adams and John Hancock that the British were coming to arrest them.

 In the 19th century, thousands of Irish, Italian, and Jewish immigrants from the North End lived in the Paul Revere house and in the 20th century, the house was restored and converted to a museum. The site is owned and operated by The Paul Revere Memorial Association.
