Florence Crittenton Home (Charleston, South Carolina)

The Florence Crittenton Home is an institution for the support of unwed mothers at 19 St. Margaret St. in Charleston, South Carolina that is on the National Register of Historic Places.

The first Florence Crittenton Home in Charleston opened on October 3, 1899,[1] at 20 Ashton St.[2] Later it was at 63 Washington St.

In 1925, the Florence Crittenton Home closed because its location at 63 Washington St. was condemned for fire risk.

[8] In August 1999, a proposal was made to include the Home (along with many other National Register properties outside of the historic district) in the jurisdiction of the Board of Architectural Review.
