[1] The Benjamin Lundy House stands at the western end of Mount Pleasant's Union Street, its principal thoroughfare.

During his year of residency here, Lundy began publishing The Genius of Universal Emancipation, the first dedicated anti-slavery publication of its type.

[3] The house belonged to Dr. Isaac Parker, a leader of the local abolitionist community, from 1815 to 1843.

The building is known to have served as a station on the Underground Railroad, and is one of the few known instances of a place where a free produce movement store operated.

It was acquired in 2015 by the Ohio History Connection, a preservation organization that has stabilized its condition and plans to restore it.
