Description
In 1865, Union troops paused just west of Eufaula after receiving news of the Civil War's end, sparing the town and its magnificent homes. The oldest section of Eufaula lists more than 20 homes on the National Register of Historic Places, which are put on display during the city's annual spring pilgrimage. One of the standout homes on the tour is Eufaula's Shorter Mansion, first built in 1884 by Eli Shorter. Taking more than five years, the Shorter home underwent an extensive remodel in 1901, resulting in a considerable transformation from its humble beginnings. The marvelous Greek Revival style mansion remains in excellent condition today.
