Ammi Burnham Young (June 19, 1798 – March 14, 1874) was a 19th-century American architect whose commissions transitioned from the Greek Revival to the Neo-Renaissance styles.
His design of the second Vermont State House brought him fame and success, which eventually led him to become the first Supervising Architect of the U.S.
Treasury Department.
As federal architect, he was responsible for creating across the United States numerous custom houses, post offices, courthouses and hospitals, many of which are today on the National Register.
His traditional architectural forms lent a sense of grandeur and permanence to the new country's institutions and communities.
Young pioneered the use of iron in construction.
