A beautiful old home left abandoned in rural Georgia #abandoned #abandonedplaces #desertedplaces #oldhouse #georgia In 1907, this imposing Greek Revival-style mansion was constructed for attorney Lee C. Bradley. The red brick house was designed by Thomas Walter III with Sydney Ullman, who built several notable homes in the area including the residence of Robert Jemison, Sr. Influenced by his wife’s Louisiana ancestry, the Bradley’s home features a projecting four-column portico and a large, two-story wraparound porch supported by fourteen Corinthian columns. After Bradley’s death, the house was sold to Ollie Smith, who was the youngest FBI agent in Washington D.C. at the time. Read more about the house and its former occupants on my blog. The Ezekiel New Congregational Methodist Church was constructed by Reverend Manning A. Thigpen, who was a member of one of the pioneer families of South Georgia. His father, Travis Thigpen, was one of the most successful farmers in Ware County and had fourteen children. Manning A. Thigpen married Miriam Miller on February 24, 1876. She was the granddaughter of William Miller, a Revolutionary War soldier who is buried along with the entire Miller family at Kettle Creek Cemetery in Waycross. The couple welcomed their first and only son, Ezekiel, on March 31, 1877. Tragically, Ezekiel Thigpen died in 1889 at the age of twelve. In 1899, Rev. Thigpen and his wife built the Ezekiel New Congregational Methodist Church in memory of their son. Founded in the 1920s by an African American mortician, Ivy Funeral Home remained family-owned and operated for its entire existence. At a time when racial tensions were high and many white-owned funeral homes refused to bury African Americans, the funeral home was designed to offer proper burials to a growing but segregated community. The business contributed significantly to the infrastructure of the community, often working with other black-owned institutions such as insurance companies and banks. Read more about Ivy Funeral Home on my blog. Built in 1965, the Governor’s House Hotel was once a premier landmark in Alabama’s capital city of Montgomery. The hotel featured 197 guest rooms, 6 meeting rooms, and a large banquet hall totaling over 19,500-square-feet of meeting and convention space. The Governor’s House had all of the luxuries of a private country club with outdoor activities including swimming, golf at a 9-hole golf course and horseback riding. The hotel even had a restaurant and lounge, The Rotunda Restaurant and Filibuster Lounge. One fascinating feature of the hotel was the custom-built outdoor swimming pool in the shape of Alabama. An abandoned funeral home in Alabama with power and everything left behind. #abandoned #abandonedplaces #abandonedafterdark #desertedplaces #alabama Built circa 1893, this impressive home features an eclectic design in the Queen Anne architectural style while also incorporating many Colonial Revival details. Typical of the Queen Anne style, its wall are constructed of stone, brick, and wood with a red clay tile roof. The house has many unique features including a buzzer on the floor of the formal dining room that would be used by the homeowner during dinner to alert the kitchen staff when they were ready for their next course. The staff would then enter through a hidden door from the kitchen to serve guests.
