Major Peter Bocquet's House
The Bocquet house found along Broad Street in Charleston, South Carolina is a stunning example of Revolutionary era living.  I had taken this picture simply because of the way the gas lamps looked against the orange tinted facade of the house, realizing only when I returned home that it had a historical marker next to the door.  Apparently, the home was built in 1770 and it's resident - Peter Bocquet, the son of Huguenot immigrants - served as a major in the fight for our country's independence.
