A Neoclassical landmark, this home is one of the gems of Vineville Avenue. It was built by Robert Jenks Taylor, Sr. (1854-1939), a leading Macon businessman. [Some sources date the house to 1880, but I believe this to be incorrect, considering the Neoclassical style was not in fashion at that time; if 1880 is the correct date, the portico could be a later addition]. In 1938, R. J. Taylor, Jr., gave a gift in memory of his father and grandfather which established Taylor Memorial Hospital in Hawkinsville.
