This Georgian mansion at 746 Myrtle Road in South Hills was built in 1905 by West Virginia's ninth governor, William A. MacCorkle. The three-story stone structure was constructed by Ambrose Grayson Higginbotham, who may have also designed the home. In the early 1900s, the mansion hosted many famous visitors, including Adlai Stevenson, William Jennings Bryan, and John Philip Sousa. The mansion served as a children's museum for many years but is now owned by the law firm Farmer, Cline & Campbell. It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1974.
