The Philip Porcher House was built on what had previously been part of a 34-acre plantation located outside the city limits of Charleston, South Carolina. The lands passed to Isaac Mayzck and then, after his death in 1735, to his son, Isaac Mayzck II. The younger Isaac Mayzck gave land at the corner of Archdale and Magazine Streets to his daughter, Mary Mayzck Porcher, for her and her husband, Philip Porcher, to build a house. The house they built is similar to plantations of the time, built on a high foundation. Unlike similarly styled houses of the time, the house has two drawing rooms on the first floor rather than locating one on the second floor. Instead, there are four bedrooms on the second floor.

The Hannah Enston Building is a post-bellum commercial building at 171-173 King St., Charleston, South Carolina. A former building, constructed for furniture dealer William Enston, was burned in a fire in 1861. The replacement building was in place by 1872 when it was included in a bird's eye view map of Charleston. The building was built in the Gothic Revival style with similar decorative elements to 187-189-191 King St., a building built for William Enston sometime after 1848. After the death of William Enston, his property eventually was received by the trustees of a charity which he created to build the William Enston Home, and the trustees sold 171-173 King St. in 1888. From 1888 to 1909, the two halves of the building were separately owned. The southern portion of the building at 171 King St. was operated as a grocery by George Mazo; his son, writer Earl Mazo, and the rest of the family lived on the second floor.Henry Rider Dearing and his wife Pauline Rowland Dearing apparently resided in the northern portion of the building in 1900. Birth records for Charleston indicate Pauline gave birth to a daughter (unknown first name) at 173 King Street on October 6, 1900. The records state Henry was a plumber.

The Carolina Rifles Armory at 158-160 King St., Charleston, South Carolina, was a late 19th-century headquarters for a semi-private military group, but today only the façade remains, facing an annex for the Charleston Library Society. The Carolina Rifles were a semi-private military group organized in 1869 during Reconstruction when armed military units were banned. The group ostensibly served social functions but was also expected by Confederate veterans to serve extra-police purposes. After the election of Gov. Wade Hampton, the organizations became legal, and the group reconstituted itself as the Carolina Rifles. They purchased 158-160 King St. as their armory in 1888. Construction was under way in 1889, and the Carolina Rifles were in their new headquarters by 1890. The building had commercial space on the ground floor, and the Carolina Rifles used the second floor. By 1989, when Hurricane Hugo came ashore, the building was in poor shape, and all but its intricate façade was destroyed in the storm. The neighboring Charleston Library Society bought the building so that it could expand, and a reconstruction of a building behind the façade began in November 1994.

The Cathedral of St. John and St. Finbar was the first Roman Catholic cathedral in Charleston, South Carolina. The cathedral followed the first Roman Catholic Church in Charleston, St. Mary's, founded around 1800. Construction began in 1850 with the cathedral consecrated on April 6, 1854. It was destroyed on December 11, 1861, in a fire that ravaged much of Charleston. A new cathedral—the Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist, built on the same site-was started in 1890. It opened in 1907 and was completed in 2010 with the addition of the long-anticipated steeple.

St. Andrew's Hall was a public building in Charleston, South Carolina, on Broad Street. The hall served as headquarters for the St. Andrew's Society of Charleston, South Carolina. It was also an important part of the social life of upper-class Charlestonians. It was used for balls, banquets, concerts, and meetings of organizations like the South Carolina Jockey Club and the St. Cecilia Society. The hall could also be used for lodging, and both President James Monroe and General Marquis de Lafayette stayed there. On December 19, 1860, delegates from South Carolina met at St. Andrew's Hall to discuss possible secession from the United States. The following day, they met in Institute Hall on Meeting Street, which became known as Secession Hall and voted 169 to 0 to secede. South Carolina delegates later ratified the Confederate Constitution there on April 3, 1861. South Carolina was the first state to secede from the Union. The St. Andrew's Hall as well as Secession Hall were both destroyed during a Charleston fire on December 11, 1861

The Ralph Izard is a pre-Revolutionary house at 110 Broad St., Charleston, South Carolina. Although the house is known as the Ralph Izard House, it was likely built by a former owner, William Harvey.

They held the house for more than twenty years before selling it to Judge Mitchell King, a municipal judge and trustee for the College of Charleston. Among his descendants who occupied the house was George D. Bryan, a mayor of Charleston.

The John Lining House is one of the oldest houses in Charleston. Although the lot upon which the house stands was first conveyed to French Huguenot immigrant Jaques DeBordeaux in 1694, it is uncertain when the house was built; the first mention of a house appears in a 1715 deed by which the property, including a dwelling, was conveyed to William Harvey, Jr. In 1757, the house was received by Mrs. Sarah Lining, the wife of Dr. John Lining. Although the couple owned the house for less than one year before transferring it to John Rattray, Dr. Lining's name stuck as the name of the dwelling. In 1780, the building was acquired by Dr. Andrew Turnbull, the founder of New Smyrna, Florida, who opened in the house the first of a long series of apothecary shops which remained until 1960. In 1960, the house was in danger of being demolished, but it was bought by the Preservation Society of Charleston in late 1961 and restored at a cost of $75,000.
