| The Thomas Isaac Log Cabin is currently
the headquarters of the Ellicott City Consortium. Built
circa 1780 from wood and mortar, the log cabin was one
of the Isaac family’s three residences, and was
originally located on Merryman Street. However, after
a flood, the Isaac’s moved their residence higher
up the road to the top of a hill and out of the flood
plane to protect themselves from future catastrophies.
After they moved, the Isaac’s loaned the cabin
to the African American community. The cabin has recently
been restored to its 19th century appearance.
