The Chazal House is a Greek Revival house at 66 Anson St., Charleston, South Carolina in the historic Ansonborough neighborhood. The house was built in 1839 by the widow of a famous privateer, J.P. Chazal, who captured approximately 40 ships during the War of 1812. His widow, Elizabeth, had immigrated to Charleston from Santo Domingo after a slave rebellion on the island in 1794. Their son Dr. John P. Chazal inherited the property shortly after the house was built and held it until 1869. Following other intermediate owners, the Historic Charleston Foundation acquired the house on June 9, 1960, and resold it to Mr. and Mrs. William McIntosh III in 1963. The house was restored by the McIntosh family between 1963 and the early 1970s. The house is a fine example of a simple Greek Revival house with red Philadelphia brick run in American bond on the north and south facades and common bond (an early use in Charleston) on the front, or west, facade.

Charleston is the largest city in the U.S. state of South Carolina, the county seat of Charleston County, and the principal city in the Charleston–North Charleston metropolitan area. The city lies just south of the geographical midpoint of South Carolina's coastline on Charleston Harbor, an inlet of the Atlantic Ocean formed by the confluence of the Ashley, Cooper, and Wando rivers. Charleston had a population of 150,277 at the 2020 census. The 2020 population of the Charleston metropolitan area, comprising Berkeley, Charleston, and Dorchester counties, was 799,636 residents, the third-largest in the state 8th largest in the Deep South and the 74th-largest metropolitan statistical area in the United States. Charleston was founded in 1670 as Charles Town, honoring King Charles II, at Albemarle Point on the west bank of the Ashley River (now Charles Towne Landing) but relocated in 1680 to its present site, which became the fifth-largest city in North America within ten years. It remained unincorporated throughout the colonial period; its government was handled directly by a colonial legislature and a governor sent by Parliament. Election districts were organized according to Anglican parishes, and some social services were managed by Anglican wardens and vestries. Charleston adopted its present spelling with its incorporation as a city in 1783. Population growth in the interior of South Carolina influenced the removal of the state government to Columbia in 1788, but Charleston remained among the ten largest cities in the United States through the 1840 census.Charleston's significance in American history is tied to its role as a major slave trading port. Charleston slave traders like Joseph Wragg were the first to break through the monopoly of the Royal African Company and pioneered the large-scale slave trade of the 18th century; almost one-half of slaves imported to the United States arrived in Charleston. In 2018, the city formally apologized for its role in the American slave trade after CNN noted that slavery "riddles the history" of Charleston.

The Daniel Legare House is the oldest surviving house in the historic Ansonborough area of Charleston, South Carolina. The land upon which the house was built was sold to Daniel Crawford in May 1745 for a price that was much lower than expected for a house at the time, thereby suggesting a construction date after that time.When Crawford's estate sold the property in 1760, the deed included a reference to buildings on the grounds. Details about the house suggest two different construction periods. For example, there are breaks in the vertical woodwork between the second (main entrance) floor and the third floor, suggesting that the third floor is a later addition. Daniel Crawford possibly erected the roughly finished basement and first floor of the house while Daniel Legare, a man of means, perhaps expanded the house by adding the upper floor.Later owners included Bishop William May Wightman. Wightman served as the first president of Wofford College.

Kahal Kadosh Beth Elohim (Hebrew: קהל קדוש בית אלוהים, also known as K. K. Beth Elohim, or more simply Congregation Beth Elohim) is a Reform Synagogue located in Charleston, South Carolina. Having founded the congregation in 1749, it was later claimed to be the first Reform synagogue located in the United States, the current 1841 synagogue was built by enslaved African descendants owned by David Lopez Jr, a prominent slaveowner and proponent of the Confederate States of America, after the original synagogue was destroyed in a fire in 1838. It is one of the oldest Jewish congregations in the United States. The congregation is nationally significant as the place where ideas resembling Reform Judaism were first evinced. It meets in an architecturally significant 1840 Greek Revival synagogue located at 90 Hasell (pronounced as if it were spelled Hazel) Street in Charleston, South Carolina. It was designed by Cyrus L. Warner.

Theodora Park is a small public park in Charleston, South Carolina operated by the City of Charleston. The park was masterminded by David Rawle, public relations and marketing firm founder, who lives nearby in the historic Ansonborough neighborhood. The park, named for his mother, is one of Charleston's most unusual pocket parks.Previously, a playground known as the Ansonborough Tot Lot occupied the location, but it was underused; there were few children in the neighborhood, and a newer playground opened not far away.

The centerpiece of the park is a 32-foot-long fountain pool with handmade ceramic tiles by the noted artist Paul Heroux. The park also features a gate made by Charleston blacksmith Philip Simmons. The gate is presented as a stand-alone piece of art. Sheila Wertimer was the landscape architect for the project and the Charleston Parks Conservancy helps maintain the park.The New York Times has called Theodora Park "a beautifully tranquil public garden." And The Post and Courier hailed it as "a new gem . . . a model for the future."The park was officially opened to the public on Saturday, June 6, 2015.
