Harrison Gray Otis (October 8, 1765 – October 28, 1848), was a businessman, lawyer, and politician, becoming one of the most important leaders of the United States' first political party, the Federalists.
He shaped Boston both politically and architecturally. In the early decades of the United States, he served Massachusetts as U.S. Representative (1797–1801) and U.S. Senator (1817–1822), and was also mayor of Boston (1829–1832). As a real estate developer he played a significant role in growing the Beacon Hill neighborhood, including building three large houses for his own family. One still stands; Designed by famed architect Charles Bulfinch, the home is now the Otis House Museum and also serves as the library and archives for Historic New England.
