Elegant Mansions Reflect a Variety of Styles
The National Trust Guide to Savannah Architectural and Cultural Treasures by Roulehac Tolenado provides an easy to use reference to Savannah's historic architecture. Published by John Wiley and Sons, Inc. in cooperation with the National Trust for Historic Preservation, this relativly compact volume, 234 pages, is highly recommended to anyone interested in Savannah's architectural and cultural heritage.
The Hardee house at left features high-relief decorative cast iron lintels over lowered arch windows - a fine example of the Itallianate style.
The oldest existing mansion in Savannah is the Pink House built for the Habersham family, wealthy early merchants. Another mansion is the Sorrel-Weed House (at right), a sophisticated Greek revival mansion with a parapet shallowly arched in the Regency manner. Start
