Back of photograph: "(c) Henry P. Staats / 173 Rutledge Ave. / Chas." This photograph of the razed Charleston single home at 173 Rutledge Avenue shows the ornate woodwork of the elegant circular staircase. The walls were decorated with engaged, fluted columns, as is the architrave, which demonstrated classical entablature, surmounted by a triglyph frieze with rosettes, and a dentiled cornice. The paneling on the door was mirrored in the stairwell, flanked by a sinuous mahogany railing. The stair hall offered recesses for statuary as well as an ornate stained glass window.
