September 7, 2019 -- Owens-Thomas House

.

Owens-Thomas House Gardens in Savannah, Georgia.

Construction of this important and architecturally significant house was begun in 1816 and completed in 1819. Designed by the English architect William Jay of Bath, the house plans were drawn while Jay was still in England. He sent architectural elevations to local workers before his arrival in Savannah sometime after foundations were laid. According to Jay's letters, the house was to be aesthetically compatible to Bath, England. This is evident in the Bath stone of the house's construction as well as its sophisticated architectural detail. It was a gentrifying physical ornament to the newly successful Southern port. The Richardson House, as it was originally known after its first owner and builder, is North America's preeminent example of period English Regency architecture. It was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1976, as one of the nation's finest examples of English Regency architecture

    Looks like it has a garden befitting the elevated status of the house itself. Gorgeous photo of it. Hope it survived the recent brush with Dorian without damage.
