Thomas Dale House

The Capers-Motte House is a pre-Revolutionary house at 69 Church Street in Charleston, South Carolina. The house was likely built before 1745 by Richard Capers. Later, the house purchased and became the home of Colonel Jacob Motte, who served as the treasurer of the colony for 27 years until his death in 1770. His son, also named Jacob Motte, married Rebecca Brewton, daughter of goldsmith Robert Brewton and sister of Miles Brewton, a wealthy slave trader.In 1778, Colonel James Parsons occupied the house; he was a member of the Continental Congress and had been offered the vice-presidency of South Carolina before the formation of the United States. From 1800 to 1811, O'Brien Smith, a member of Congress, owned the house. At his death, he left the house to his widow. Later it was owned by his sister Honora Smith Pyne. Mrs. William Mason Smith bought the house in 1869. Her granddaughter, American artist Alice Ravenel Huger Smith, lived in the house in the 20th century.After the house was bought in 1969 by Anthony Cecil and his wife, they had it restored to its Georgian and Adam period appearance, with later changes removed.The house follows a traditional double-house format with four principal rooms on each floor, and a centrally located stair hall. An unusual feature is that the third-floor windows are the same height as those on the first two floors; the expected design would have had smaller windows on the third floor.

The Elizabeth O'Neill Verner House is a pre-Revolutionary house that was built by a Huguenot barrel maker. The house was built in 1718. Later, the house was used as a "sweet shoppe." In the 20th century, American artist Elizabeth O'Neill Verner kept her art studio in the house.

The Robert Brewton House is a historic house at 71 Church Street in Charleston, South Carolina. With a construction date at or before 1730, it is the oldest dated example of a "single" house. A single house is one room wide, with the narrow end towards the street, the better to catch cool breezes. It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1960.

Cabbage Row is a set of pre-Revolutionary buildings at 89 and 91 Church Street in Charleston, South Carolina. The buildings are most notable for having been the inspiration for "Catfish Row" in the DuBose Heyward novel Porgy and later the opera Porgy and Bess by Gershwin. DuBose Heyward had lived nearby on Church Street.The buildings were perhaps operated as counting houses when they were built, but after the earthquake of 1886, their condition deteriorated until they were a well-known "resort for sailors." The property was bought by landscape architect Loutrel Briggs in February 1928. Mr. Briggs intended to restore the buildings as residences suitable for artists. The property sold next to Charles H. Gibbs and his business partners in 1955.

The James Vanderhorst House is a pre-revolutionary house in Charleston, South Carolina. It is notable for its connection to American artist Alfred Hutty.Hutty restored and occupied the house starting in about 1928; he had moved to Charleston to become the first director of the Carolina Art School. He used the house as his residence, and he restored a separate kitchen house and servants' quarters in the rear of the property as his art studio. Hutty and his wife sold the property in 1951.As part of his work on the main house, Hutty relocated the entrance to the house to the west (garden) side of the house. The balcony which he installed on the west side was originally installed on Sheppard's Tavern at the northeast corner of Broad and Church Streets; the balcony was saved when the tavern was demolished to make way for a bank building.

First Baptist Church is a Baptist church in Charleston, South Carolina. It is affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention. The congregation was founded in 1682 under the leadership of William Screven. It is one of the oldest Baptist congregations in the American South. The church congregation was originally organized in Kittery, Maine (then part of Massachusetts) under the guidance of the First Baptist Church of Boston. In 1696 twenty-six congregants followed Pastor Screven and moved to Charleston after being pressured by the New England Congregationalist authorities. The relocated congregation became the First Baptist Church of Charleston. Pastor Screven recommended that any future pastor be "orthodox in faith, and of blameless life, and does own the confession of faith put forth by our brethren in London in 1689" declaring the church to be firmly Calvinist (Reformed Baptist). First Baptist Church is currently affiliated with the Southern Baptist denomination. The current Greek Revival sanctuary was designed by Robert Mills and built in 1820.On June 26, 2019, the church announced the building will be closed after the July 7, 2019 services as a result of area reconstruction; the education building demolition began in June 2019, and after full demolition begins in July 2019, it was deemed unsafe to be around the church. The church will move to nearby James Island in their school auditorium until further notice, likely when officials assure the building will be safe to occupy. The church has since been used for limited use by other churches and for their Christmas services, but the church continues to meet on James Island.

The William Vanderhorst House was used as the first post office in Charleston, South Carolina before 1753. Eleazer Philips was the first postmaster of Charleston to have a dedicated office for the handling of the mail, and he used 54 Tradd Street for that purpose. Earlier postmasters handled the mail in their own houses. The house was used as a post office until after 1791 when Peter Bacot relocated the operation to 84 Broad Street.The house was built by William Vanderhorst about 1740 on property inherited by his wife from her grandfather.

The Dubose Heyward House is a historic house at 76 Church Street in Charleston, South Carolina. Now a wing of a larger house, this modest two-story structure was the home from 1919 to 1924 of author Dubose Heyward (1885–1940), author of Porgy, one of the first works to portray Southern African-Americans in a positive light. The house was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1971.

The Heyward-Washington House is a historic house museum at 87 Church Street in Charleston, South Carolina.

It is now owned and operated by the Charleston Museum. Furnished for the late 18th century, the house includes a collection of Charleston-made furniture. Other structures include the carriage shed and 1740s kitchen building. The house was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1970.

The Thomas Rose House is a National Register property located at 59 Church St. in Charleston, South Carolina. The 2+1⁄2-story stuccoed brick house was probably built by planter Thomas Rose in 1733. Thomas Rose House was built on a lot granted through the King's Lords Proprietor to Elizabeth Willis in 1680 — "one of the few grants given to a woman." Thomas Rose constructed the house on the original Charles Town Lot no. 61, inherited by his wife, Beuler Elliott, replacing an earlier dwelling. The house has excellent examples of original Georgian woodwork in the paneling, staircase, and elsewhere. In the twentieth century an owner razed a neighboring house on the adjoining lot to the south to accommodate a large garden.

The William Harvey House in Charleston, South Carolina, is one of three tenement houses near the southeast corner of Meeting and Tradd Streets that were described in the local newspaper as "newly built" on April 19, 1770. After nearly forty years of ownership by the Tradd family (for whom the adjacent street was named), the corner lot was sold to Jacob Motte in 1731. Motte served as the provincial treasurer for many years; in 1752 he was found to have received 90,000 pounds from the treasury in his official capacity, but was unable to repay the public funds. The unimproved lot was assigned to a committee of the government to hold until the debt was repaid. Its chain of title is incomplete until 1770 when the property belonged to William Harvey. His lot at the corner of Meeting St. and Tradd St. (which had not yet been subdivided from its original size and included houses facing Tradd Street) was to be sold, and an advertisement in the Charleston Gazette described the lot as having "three very good new-built Brick Houses, with every convenient Out-Building."In 1799, the corner parcel was bought by Henry William de Saussure and Timothy Ford. The two lawyers temporarily rejoined the house with the neighboring parcel at 63 Tradd Street before ultimately splitting off 58 Meeting Street in 1801 into its current dimensions. De Saussure received 58 Meeting St. as part of the division. The house passed through several other owners before being bought by John H. Doscher in 1872. Doscher opened a grocery in the building and remodeled the house with Victorian details and a storefront. The grocery use lasted nearly a century. The Historic Charleston Foundation bought the house in 1979 and conveyed it in April 1982 to Thomas and Jacquelin Stevenson who restored the building to a residential purpose.The house, a Charleston single house, was bought by John Dewberry in 2003 for $1.5 million. The house's stables on the south end of the lot had been joined to the house in the early 1900s and converted into a kitchen. Dewberry reworked the hyphen between the two buildings and remodeled the kitchen.
