174 Tradd Street (Thomas Young House)Entry/Object ID
TRADD.174.1Scope and Content
Constructed ca. 1883-84. Late-Italianate Style door and cornice trim and double-tiered Queen Anne Style piazzas distinguish this large 2½ story frame house constructed, by Thomas Young on land subdivided by the Chisolm family. The exceptionally high basement of this house indicates its precarious position on lands adjacent to the marshes and the Ashley River. The rear piazzas end midway along the west elevation with a gabled ell addition, a modification of the traditional Charleston plan generally seen in the 1870s and 1880s. In 1896 it became the home of Francis Rodgers Jr.
