House history from Buildings of Charleston: 128 Church Street (Keenan-O'Reilly Houses). North section constructed c. 1802-15, south section c. 1820; renovated 1970s, 1990s. Constructed as two separate buildings, these were first joined together in a renovation in the 1970s. The small 2½ story house to the north, with its restored brickwork and hipped, pantile roof, was built after 1802 by shopkeeper George Keenan and sold in 1815 to Joshua Brown. To the south, the flat-roofed parapeted building was constructed by James O'Reilly after 1820.Photograph Details
