William Herbert Bush House

This commanding Nashville house was built in 1876 by William Herbert Bush, grandson of William G. Bush, founder of Nashville’s largest brick and masonry company. This was home to Tennessee’s governor in the 1880s. It even survived the Great Fire of 1916, which devastated much of East Nashville.

It’s Dutch Renaissance architecture which isn’t common around these parts, though there is one other in the Edgefield Historic District.
