Bulloch-Habersham House

The white stucco mansion in the English Regency style that Jay designed for the Bullochs stood two stories over a basement. It was noted for its semi-circular entrance portico with six Corinthian columns modelled after the Temple of Vesta in Rome. The interior was described as follows in Classical Savannah by Page Talbott,

In 1822, Bulloch sold the mansion for $19,000 to John Morel and David Leion. They transformed it into a boarding house as it remained until 1834 when it was purchased by the merchant and planter Robert Habersham (1783-1870) for just $7,000. After his death it passed to his son, William Neyle Habersham (1817-1899), the well-known connoisseur and dealer in Madeira wine. He died in 1899 and his heirs mainitained the house until 1905. Ten years later (1915), it was acquired by the City of Savannah for the purpose of demolishing it to build a municipal auditorium. It fell to the wrecking ball in 1918.
