Constructed ca. 1889 (36) and ca. 1895 (38 and 40). These three frame houses in the Colonial Revival style were built by Frederick Heinz, a prosperous German baker, confectioner, and ice cream manufacturer. He lived at 36 South Battery and built the other two later as investments. Before building the houses, Heinz operated the Battery Ice Cream Garden on the premises. Henry Frost Walker, an engineer and professor at the College of Charleston, also lived at 36 South Battery. (Tour Guide Training Manual)
