Macon was going through a bit of an architectural renaissance in the first decade of the 20th century and Neoclassical Revival mansions were being built throughout the city’s historic neighborhoods at a brisk pace. One of the finest was this yellow brick beauty, with a bowed portico, built for George Turpin. Later owners were Walter Grace and J. Freeman Hart, Jr. It was during the Hart’s ownership that the organization meeting of the Middle Georgia Historical Society was held in the home in 1964.

Beautiful house!
Question: Is this Hart part of the Hart’s Mortuary family?
Beautiful photographic positioning of subject. Lovely home surrounded by neat landscaping. The different shades of green present a pleasing aesthetic. First impression was, “What a refreshing scene!”
