Rainbow Row
83-107 East Bay Street,
Downtown Charleston
Originally these mid-1700
homes had been the center of Charleston's commerce.
Concern for the needless destruction of historical buildings inspired the forming of the Society for Preservation of Old Dwelling Houses, in 1920, still functioning today as the Preservation Society.
In 1931 Dorothy Legge purchased 99 and 101
East Bay, beginning the renovation of the area between Tradd and Elliot Streets. Originally these mid-1700
homes had been the center of commerce; merchants had stores on the first floor and lived on the floors above.
Neglect over time left these valuable buildings in a state of disrepair. The purchase and restoration by Mrs.
Legge inspired others, and today this beautiful array of homes is known as "Rainbow Row".
These old row houses are very popular to Charleston. They represent the very first style of Charleston homes and are portrayed in the
story of Porgie and Bess. You'll see pictures of Rainbow Row throughout your stay in Charleston.
