The gateway for carriages is a triumphal arch with Doric columns. The third floor was added in the late nineteenth century but removed during restoration from 1975-76. The house features a variety of unusual windows: quarter round windows in the attic, a large lunette over the Greek Doric portico and round-headed windows with round-headed sash along three sides of the first floor. The entrance hall is a two-storied atrium with four Doric columns supporting the peripheral balcony. A reconstructed skylight illuminates the entrance hall. The house was built by William Scarborough a leading figure in the Savannah Steamship Company, when Savannah was rich from the cotton boom. In 1819, the Savannah Steamship Company financed the first voyage of the \"Savannah,\" the first trans-Atlantic steamship. Scarborough intended the house to host President James Monroe during his visit to Savannah in 1819 to inspect the steamship. Scarborough was bankrupted soon after, and supported by his son-in-law Godfrey Barsley. The house was willed by Robert Isaac in 1827 to Mrs. William Taylor (Scarborough's daughter), and sold by William Taylor in 1851 to Mrs. Dominick O'Byrne. Abandoned by the Byrne family as a residence after the fire of 1865, the house was sold in 1870 to the Rt. Rev. Augustine Verot, Bishop of Savannah, and used as a boys' orphanage. The house was bought by Bernard P. McKenna in 1876 and sold by him in 1878 to Georgia W. J. Derenne, who conveyed it to the Board of Education for use as the first public school for African Americans in the area, the West Broad Street School, which closed in 1962. The title soon reverted to Derenne's heirs, one of whom, Mrs. Craig Barrow, gave her share of the house to the Historic Savannah Foundation in 1966, and the Foundation purchased the remaining shares for $42,000. John Milner was the restoration architect. For more information see Linley, John. The Georgia Catalog: Historic American Buildings Survey.
