EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Old Exchange and Custom House in Charleston, South Carolina, which served as the city's post office during the American Civil War from 1863 to 1865. The Old Exchange and Custom House, located at 122 East Bay, is a historic building that was originally constructed in 1767 and served as the city's customs house and exchange until the outbreak of the Civil War. During the conflict, the building became a vital hub for the Union military, housing the post office and serving as a headquarters for Federal naval operations against the Confederate stronghold of Charleston. The photograph, taken in April 1865, shows the Old Exchange and Custom House standing proudly on the Charleston bayfront, with the Union flag flying high above the roof. The Old Exchange and Custom House played a significant role in the Union's efforts to control the Atlantic Coast during the Civil War. It was from this building that dispatches were sent and received, and where information about Confederate movements and naval activities was gathered and analyzed. The building also served as a base of operations for the Union Navy, which launched numerous expeditions against Confederate forces in the region. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when Charleston was a focal point of the Civil War and the Old Exchange and Custom House was a symbol of Union presence and control in the Confederacy's heartland. The building, which is still standing today and serves as a museum and cultural center, remains an important reminder of the pivotal role it played in the history of Charleston and the United States.
