Gabriel Manigault House, 290 Meeting Street

Description:

Photograph of the side elevation of the Gabriel Manigault House. Melchers set his camera up on George Street to capture the outbuildings and a large portion of the main house. Handwritten on reverse, "Holmes House." The 1929 Charleston City Directory lists a "Mrs. A.J.C. Holmes" as the resident and the 1930 directory lists it as vacant.

Built for Gabriel Manigault c. 1802, it was purchased by Standard Oil Company and demolished shortly after this image was taken to make way for an Esso Service Station (see MK 20609a and MK 20609b).
