Lowcountry Life

Reader Ron Callari sent in this photo and trivia question. Over 100 years old, this majestic mansion at 607 Bay Street with its breathtaking views of the Woods Memorial Bridge is facing a second rebirth, as new owners transform it into Beaufort‘s newest hostelry. Does anyone know the history related to its first renovation back in 1907? Hint: It has something to do with its exterior transitioning from a ‘tabby’ exterior to one of concrete.
