Staats / Jacob Motte House / Chas. / 69 Church St." Poston: 69 Church Street, known as either the Jacob Motte house or the Motte-Capers house, is one of the larger Pre-Revolutionary homes on the peninsula as well as a home that housed many significant Charlestonians. Richard Capers and Jordan Roche owned the property in succession, so as to whom the construction of the classic double house is to be credited is a little hazy. The home was built circa 1750 and was leased by colonial treasurer Jacob Motte and his wife, Rebecca Brewton Motte, Roche's niece, from 1761 until 1770. A later owner renovated the home and altered the outbuildings to a Gothic Revival style in the early nineteenth century. In 1869, Eliza Middleton Huger Smith purchased the house, her home being burned down by Sherman's troops. Eliza Huger Smith was the grandmother of Charleston Renaissance artist and early Charleston architectural authority Alice Ravenel Huger Smith. Upon her death in 1958 the house passed out of the Smith family for the first time in nearly 90 years. In 1971 a new owner removed the piazzas and restored the central entrance to street level. visible image 12 x 13 cm Donated to CLS by Henry P. Staats.

Staats / Heyward-Washington / 1750 / 87 Church St."" 87 Church Street or the Heyward-Washington house has had many important American figures darken its doorways. A house was originally on the land built in the 1740s, but when the Heyward's purchased the land in 1770 the house was razed and the only things to remain were the stables and kitchens. A Georgian style double town house was built out of brick in the stead of the original home. It contains a central hall with two rooms to each side a second floor with a large and small drawing room, as well as exterior brick jack arches over the windows. Thomas Heyward jr., a signer of the Declaration of Independence, rented the house to George Washington during this 1791 visit to the city, which is why the house is called the Heyward-Washington house. In 1794, the house was sold to Revolutionary War officer John Grimke, father of suffragettes and abolitionists Sarah and Angelina Grimke. By the late nineteenth century the house had been sold again and the bottom floor had been converted in to a bakery, along with some other renovation made during the period. In 1929 the house was purchased by the Charleston Museum from the Society of Preservation, although it was not finalized until 1950. In 1978 the house was placed on the National Register for Historic Landmarks. During one of the many restorations after 1929, the formal gardens were restored to include only plants that would have been common in Lowcountry South Carolina gardening when George Washington stayed in Charleston. The house is currently available to visit through the Charleston Museum and includes priceless examples of colonial furniture as well as the only mid-eighteenth century kitchen open to the public on the peninsula.

Back of photograph: "(c) Henry P. Staats / Old Exchange Bldg / Chas. / 122 East Bay St." 122 East Bay Street or locally called The Old Exchange and Provost Building was designed by William Rigby Naylor and built by Peter and John Adam Horlbeck. This two story Georgian building with its Ionic columns and pilasters, neoclassical urns and hipped roof made of Welsh Caenarvon slate was constructed between 1767 and 1771. It has three bay projections as well as east and west pediment central pavilions. It was originally meant as an exchange and custom house for shipping in the colony's early years as well as a public market and meeting place. It served as city hall briefly after the Revolution, then was purchased by the Federal government in 1818 when some alterations were made. During Reconstruction, the building was considered up for demolition due to damage following the war and again after the Earthquake of 1886. However, the city protested the demolition efforts, and the DAR and the state of South Carolina bought the building in 1912. References:National Park Service. In 1973 The Exchange and Provost Building became a National Historic Landmark. In 1976, a bicentennial restoration was planned, which took place between 1979 and 1983, which returned the Georgian building to its former glory. Including new cast stone replacement urns that were lost to the earthquake, new fire tower stairs, and a restoration of an upstairs for social events. Additionally the building serves as a museum.

Back of photograph: "(c) Henry P. Staats / Old Exchange Bldg. / Foot of Broad St. / 122 East Bay St." 122 East Bay Street or locally called The Old Exchange and Provost Building was designed by William Rigby Naylor and built by Peter and John Adam Horlbeck. This two story Georgian building with its Ionic columns and pilasters, neoclassical urns and hipped roof made of Welsh Caenarvon slate was constructed between 1767 and 1771. It has three bay projections as well as east and west pediment central pavilions. The Exchange and Provost Building has served many purposes over its long life. It was originally meant as an exchange and custom house for shipping in the colony's early years as well as a public market and meeting place. It also served as a military jail and barracks. The Exchange and Provost building held confiscated tea and the Provincial Congress of South Carolina in 1774 until the British seized it and the building changed hands becoming the British Provost dungeon until the end of the war. In 1782, The Exchange and Provost Building served as the city hall and was home to the Ratification Convention of the Constitution. George Washington visited the Exchange and Provost building during his southern tour of 1791. In 1818 the site was given to the federal government, at which times some renovations were made, like demolishing the stair towers and cupola. During Reconstruction, the building was considered up for demolition due to damage following the war and again after the Earthquake of 1886. However, the city protested the demolition efforts, and the DAR and the state of South Carolina bought the building in 1912. In 1973 The Exchange and Provost Building became a National Historic Landmark. In 1976, a bicentennial restoration was planned, which took place between 1979 and 1983, which returned the Georgian building to its former glory. Including new cast stone replacement urns that were lost to the earthquake, new fire tower stairs, and a restoration of an upstairs for social events. Additionally the building serves as a museum.

Staats, this community presents a moment of change in the South Carolina Lowcountry. The images affectionately demonstrate both the stagnation and progress of the Charleston area from its colonial roots to its tumultuous survival of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, presenting a time capsule of the Lowcountry as it was in the mid-1950s.

Staats / Chas. County Court House / 2 Court House Sq." The Charleston County Courthouse found at 2 Courthouse Square or 84 Broad Street was originally constructed in 1753 and was the provincial courthouse for the capitol of the Carolina colony of Great Britain. The original building was burnt in 1788 and was rebuilt in 1792 this time as the county seat for the city of Charleston in the United States, Columbia by this time had been made the new capital city of the state following independence. The new building was built in a Neoclassical style designed by Judge William Drayton and James Hoban, who also designed the White House. The new courthouse was the home for the legal activity of the circuit, state and federal court as well the location for the sheriff's offices. On the third floor the building the Charleston Library Society and the Charleston Museum were housed for a time. Additional renovations were made in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. As the renovations of those periods did not benefit the integrity of the building it was restored to its former 18th century glory after a restoration in recent decade. The courthouse is still the home of the county court and county government to this day. References: National Park Service. Charleston County Courthouse.
