- Located at: 506 Telfair Street, Augusta, Ga.
The rectangular structure with two bay windows flanking the entrance was built in 1818. The house has variously been attributed to Daniel Platt and Gabriel Manigault. Built for then mayor of Augusta, Nicholas Ware, the building is also known as Ware's Folly. A hipped roof with dormers and flared eaves covers the two and a half story structure. It now houses the Gertrude Herbert Institute of Art, Central Savannah River Area's (CSRA's) only independent non-profit art school and gallery. For more information, see John Linley's The Georgia Catalog: Historic American Buildings Survey ; a guide to the architecture of the state published by the University of Georgia Press in 1982.
