Construida hacia 1680 en el solar de la casa parroquial de la Second Church, esta vivienda con estructura de madera situada en North Square es el edificio más antiguo que se conserva en el centro de Boston y el único vestigio de las casas adosadas del siglo XVII en la ciudad. Paul Revere fue su propietario entre 1770 y 1800, y cerca del noventa por ciento de la estructura original —incluidos puertas, marcos de ventanas, suelos y vigas del tejado— ha llegado hasta nuestros días; cuatro de sus estancias están ambientadas en la época colonial. La Paul Revere Memorial Association, que gestiona la casa como museo desde 1908, también es propietaria de la contigua Pierce/Hichborn House, construida en ladrillo hacia 1711, y del Education and Visitor Center en 5-6 Lathrop Place, inaugurado en 2016 con exposiciones, espacios para actividades y la tienda del museo. Un patio con jardines de época y una campana de bronce fundida en los propios talleres de Revere conecta los edificios.
