Description
The C.C. Kilgore House was built in 1869 or 1870 by Bryce Hospital for Captain C.C. Kilgore. Captain Kilgore was the first engineer for the hospital. The house was one of Tuscaloosa's only notable Reconstruction-era houses. In 1976 the house was acquired by the University of Alabama in a property trade and housed the University's Center for the Study of Southern History and Culture and the Alabama Review office. In 2013 after the University of Alabama was unable to locate a buyer for the house, it was torn down.
