Blake Tenements

The Blake Tenements were built between 1760 and 1772 by Daniel Blake, a planter from Newington Plantation on the Ashley River. The building was named to the National Register of Historic Places in 1970. The building was renovated for use as an annex to a nearby county office building in 1969. Architecture The double tenement is three and one-half stories of brick on a high brick basement. The brickwork is laid in Flemish bond on the facade with English bond on the sides. The building was acquired by Charleston County in 1967 and used for county offices. The building is located on Lot 313 of the original plan of the City of Charleston, land which was granted in 1698 to Gov. Joseph Blake, the great-grandfather of the builder. Today, the lot is known as 6 & 8 Courthouse Square. After Hurricane Hugo, the building was closed and later restored along with the next door historic Charleston County Courthouse.

Branford-Horry House

The Branford-Horry House is located at 59 Meeting Street, Charleston, South Carolina. The house is unusual for its piazza, which extends over the public sidewalk. The house holds both an exterior and interior historic preservation easement by the Preservation Society of Charleston. Description The 6,216 square foot, three-story house of stuccoed brick has four bedrooms and five baths. Its features include interior cypress paneling, a carved mahogany mantelpiece, french doors, cornice details, and a carved wooden staircase. A cypress-paneled second-floor drawing room, carved by artisan Henry Burnett, is said to be "one of the most distinguished 18th-century rooms in America." A brick courtyard with fountain is located on the property. A two-story piazza extends over the sidewalk, with five columns supporting a pediment. History The house was built after 1751, when William Branford married Elizabeth Savage, who had inherited the corner parcel from her uncle Benjamin Savage. Upon her death in 1801, the home was inherited by Ann Branford and her husband Thomas Horry. During the 1750s, the property included a carriage house and several outbuildings. According to the 1790 census, eight white people and thirty-four enslaved people lived in the complex. The front piazza, built over the sidewalk, was added by Branford's grandson, Elias Horry, in about 1830. Horry served as mayor of Charleston from 1815-1817, during which time the house served as the mayoral mansion. Preservationist Eliza D. Simons Kammerer owned the house from the 1940s to the 1960s, conducting an extensive restoration of the interior. She brought national attention to the home. The house was showcased in a National Geographic article in 1939. The house was named to the National Register of Historic Places in 1970. In 1988, a speeding car crashed into the house, knocking out two of the columns and sending one into the front door of the house. Author Edward Ball stayed at the Branford-Horry House while researching his 1998 book Slaves in the Family. In the book, he describes the mansion as "run-down and neglected" after its owners had defaulted on a mortgage. He refers to the rooms as "moldering, the air thick and bacterial" with "peeling paint and water-stained plaster" and "beige stucco that was cracked and chipping." The house was extensively rehabilitated in 2001-2002 "in a historically accurate manner, except modernizing kitchen and bathrooms." Interior and exterior historic preservation easements were granted in 2002 and 2004. In 2018, the home, in "exquisitely preserved" condition, sold for $6.2 million. Today (Nov. 2025), it remains privately owned. See also Capers-Motte House Miles Brewton House Robert Brewton House References Further reading Robert P.

Brittlebank Park

Brittlebank Park is a ten-acre (4.0 ha) park located between Lockwood Boulevard (to the east) and the Ashley River (to the west) in Charleston, South Carolina near Gadsden Creek. To the south is a condominium project and to the north is the minor league baseball stadium, the Joseph P. Riley Jr. Park. History The land upon which Brittlebank Park is built was used as a landfill and garbage dump, opened in 1954 and closed in 1970 when the United States Corps of Engineers charged that it was polluting the Ashley River. The park is named for Julius Brittlebank (1859-1937), who made his fortune by starting as an office boy in a grits mill in Indiana and eventually formed his own company, Hudnut Milling Co., at the turn of the twentieth century. He had settled in Charleston in 1889, and he died in 1937 in Hawaii during his eighteenth trip around the world. In his will, he left about $89,000 to each of three cities for the construction of parks including one in Charleston and two in Indiana. His estate's gift was triggered upon the death of his son, Frank Brittlebank, on November 26, 1966. The conditions were that the cities had to name the parks in honor of Mr. Brittlebank and maintain the parks. Charleston's City Council accepted the money on January 24, 1967. Plans were developed that called for the construction of the park in three stages starting in 1973 with landfill and tree plantings. The park was built in 1975. Two acres at the northern end of the park were given to the Citadel (The Military College of South Carolina) as part of a complex land swap with the City of Charleston. The transfer, approved by the State of South Carolina in December 1993, was necessary for the construction of Joseph P. Riley Jr. Park. Features Brittlebank Park is a largely passive park along the waterfront. The Charleston Department of Leisure Services sought permission build a boardwalk and dock at the park in December 1977 at the northern end, but the pier was not completed until 1992. The park includes a playground which was specifically crafted to accommodate handicapped children. Use as a Special Event Venue Because of its largely open design, Brittlebank Park has been a popular location for special events such as musical events, sporting tournaments, and political protests. In 1987, residents gathered at Brittlebank Park to mark Harmonic Convergence Day. Starting in 1989, a local radio station hosted a large series of concerts at Brittlebank Park known as "WaveFest" (in honor of the 96 Wave station). The event quickly grew too large for the venue with as many as 75,000 people attending in 1995. City Council adopted a limit on the size of such events at Brittlebank Park, and the 1996 edition was moved to another site in Charleston. In 1999, the park was the location for another musical event hosted by a radio station, the Z-93 Budweiser Reggae Festival. In 2011, Brittlebank Park was the center for the Occupy movement's Charleston efforts. Since 2013, Brittlebank Park has hosted the Charleston Pride Festival at the end of Charleston Pride Week. Notes
Broad Margin

Broad Margin is a house in Greenville, South Carolina, United States. Commissioned by Gabrielle and Charlcey Austin, it was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright and was built by Harold T. Newton in 1954. It is one of two buildings designed by Wright in South Carolina (the other being the Auldbrass Plantation). It was named to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. The house is built into the slope of the 2-acre (0.81 ha) lot. It has 12-inch-thick (30 cm) concrete walls. It extensively uses cypress wood throughout including its ceiling of cypress boards. The house has polished red concrete floors. Copper tubes are embedded in the concrete floors to heat the house using hot water. The cypress furniture was designed for the house. The doors and window frames were constructed on-site of cypress. The hardware is solid brass. Broad Margin is one of a few Wright-designed houses where he signed his name on a block imbedded into the home. The house was documented with photographs and written historical data by the Historic American Buildings Survey in 1988.

Brookland Plantation

Brookland Plantation (often written as Brooklands Plantation) is a large plantation along Shingle Creek on Edisto Island, South Carolina. History Brookland Plantation existed on Edisto Island at least by the late 18th century, when it was the home of Joseph and Martha Jenkins, who are buried on the farm. The current plantation house, however, was built later. The core of the house was built of black cypress, and its side pavilions were added later. Long-gone cabins for the enslaved people who worked the land once stood between what are now grand old oak trees. The house was perhaps built between 1800 and 1807, but some, such as architectural historian Samuel G. Stoney, claim that the house was likely built in the 1840s. The exact date of construction has not been determined, but Robert Mills is a suggested architect for the house. Ephriam Mikell Seabrook acquired the land, perhaps by intermarriage to the Seabrook family, by about 1800, and used it as cotton plantation before the Civil War. Ephriam's son, Henry Seabrook, inherited the plantation but lost it in a tax sale in 1872 when H.E. Young and James Lowndes bought the then-300 acres for $471. In 1928, Mary P. Bailey bought the house and added a metal roof over the wood shingles. In 1958, Rev. Ralph Wentling bought the plantation and turned it into Brooklands Home for Boys in 1958. The old school bell is mounted in the back garden. In 1968, Dr. and C.C. Wannamaker bought the house, while the Brooklands Home for Boys moved to Orangeburg County off the present U. S. 301 and Interstate 26, where it stayed until its acquisition by the South Carolina Baptist Convention, which merged it into the Connie Maxwell Children's Home in 1993. Robert Chesnut bought the house from Dr. Wannamaker after a bidding war with another interested buyer, a partnership, for $1.75 million. Pat Barber and Cas Danielowski, who were the members of the partnership, coincidentally had been former clients of Mr. Chesnut and had planned on hiring him to restore the house for them had they bought it. Barber, Danielowski, and Chesnut formed a new partnership to restore the house. Former South Carolina Treasurer Thomas Ravenel purchased the 3,440-square foot house in 2006 because he heard there was an effort to subdivide the 60-acre property, and he wanted to save it. The property was listed for sale in June 2019, at a list price of $3,950,000 (~$4.77 million in 2024).

Cannon Park (Charleston, South Carolina)

Cannon Park is a 2.7 acre public park located in peninsular Charleston, South Carolina. It is bound to the north by Calhoun St. and to the south by Bennett St. To the east and west are Rutledge Ave. and Ashley Ave. respectively. History Some of the property on which the park is located was given to the City of Charleston in the early 1800s for a public park. The land previously had been a sawmill pond. The last parcels to complete the existing space were acquired in 1893. Work on a public park began in 1894. By 1897, however, the park had fallen into disuse by residents; goats and cows were pastured on the land, and the grass was left uncut. In anticipation of a Confederate reunion, Charleston's city council decided to spend $30,000 to build a convention hall. Fifteen plans were submitted for the new facility, and those of Charlotte, North Carolina architect Frank Pierce Milburn were selected. The hall, with seating for 7000, was completed and handed over to the City Council on April 27, 1899. After the Confederate reunion, the hall was used infrequently and never to capacity. In October 1901, the City Parks Commission leased the auditorium to William P. Dowling Jr. for a term of three years for use as a theater. In December 1904, the city council chose to use the building as a temporary location for the city hospital. In January 1907, the city council agreed to lease the hall to the College of Charleston to house its museum, thereafter known as the Charleston Museum, for a nominal rent. In October 1981, a fire destroyed the hall about one year after the museum moved to Meeting Street, leaving only its four grand columns. In 1981, the city proposed a redevelopment of Cannon Park along the lines of the proposal drafted by Olmsted in the late 19th century. The Olmsted Brothers, a landscaping firm in Brookline, Massachusetts, had designed plans for a park during the 1890s, but these never were implemented before the site became Thomson Auditorium. The proposal retained the columns as a focal point and established the landscape around them using palm trees and oaks. A water basin was planned but never implemented. The park today has a playground and walking paths. While the park is unfenced, it does allow unleashed dogs. Notes
