 Reynolds Square:The Pink House
One of the few buildings to survive the inferno of 1796 when over 200 houses were destroyed. Built for "Liberty Boy" James Habersham, Jr., this house brightens the neighborhood with rose-pink stucco. Toward the end of the Civil War, it was headquarters for Union General Zebulon York; now it is a restaurant and tavern. Notice the palladian window above the columned entrance. 23 Abercorn Street.
