(Lebanon, N.H., 1800-1874)

Contemporary (and possible rival) of Isaiah Rogers. Prominent Boston architect, and (the first) Supervising Architect of the Treasury in the early-mid 1850s when James K. Wilson designed the Cincinnati Post Office, southwest corner of Vine and Fourth streets, on the later site of H.H. Richardson’s Cincinnati Chamber of Commerce Building. Succeeded by Isaiah Rogers in the Federal Bureau of Construction.

The U.S. Custom House in Louisville was also built under Young’s tenure.
