Visitors will encounter the history this house witnessed in two different time periods 100 years apart:

1840: When abolitionist author Harriet Beecher Stowe lived in Cincinnati as a young teacher and mother preparing to write the blockbuster antislavery novel Uncle Tom's Cabin

1940: When African-American proprietor Irene Bacon managed the house as the Edgemont Inn—a boarding house and tavern listed in the Green Book.
