Visiting The Owens-Thomas House in Savannah, GA

During the time that I attended the Savannah College of Art and Design I worked part time for the Owens-Thomas House. It is owned my the Telfair Museum of Arts . It is located in the Historic District of downtown Savannah. Construction on this house began in the late 1700's and was designed by William Jay who was a young architect from Bath, England. This house had indoor plumbing before the White House and the water was heated! Built for Richard Richardson, who endured many hardships after moving into the home.
This house is a must see for anyone visiting Savannah, GA. You can find all the information needed at this website Owens-Thomas House.
