LINE.019.1Scope and Content
Constructed ca. 1872-1879. Early African-American housing in Charleston remains a quickly disappearing architectural form, embodying many of the characteristics of the grand Charleston single houses lying in the southern end of the city. The dwelling on 19½ Line Street is a fine example of such a structure.
