• Edmondston-Alston House
  The Edmonston-Alston House museum was built in 1825 and has one of the best views of Charleston, South Carolina's outstanding harbor, and on one of its piazza's General P. T. Beauregard watched as the violent bombardment of Fort Sumter began on April 12, 1861; which started the most costly war in United States history, and perhaps the longest lasting in terms of what it did accomplish or not, although the results weren't exactly known at the time it officially ended. Some months later, in December, the house would become the refuge of General Robert E. Lee, since a terrible fire had broken out in his hotel and threatened his life. The house was constructed in the Federal style by Charles Edmondston, a successful Scottish shipping merchant at the time. It became one of the finest houses to be constructed by the city's sea wall, but away from the dirty and noisy warehouses and wharves that lay further along the peninsula. In the Panic of 1837, Charles would be forced to sell his beloved house, which was then bought by Charles Alston, one of the low country rice plantation dynasties who began to update the house into a more modern Greek revival style by adding a third story porch with Corinthian columns, rooftop railing that had the Alston coat of arms engraved on it and a cast-iron balcony across the front.
