The Philip Johnson Glass House

Architect Philip Johnson designed this famous glass house, built in 1949, which officially became a National Trust site open to the public in 2007. Johnson had no need for windows in this building as it is constructed almost entirely of glass (except, thankfully, for the bathroom). The house blends magically with the surrounding environs, blurring the line between the natural and man-made. It's a must-see for fans of modern art and architecture. Call for timings.

Southport Historic District

The Southport Historic District is a district of preserves of the former Southport. Spread over 225 acres (91 ha) of land, the district is a site of the remains of the historical beauties, however, since most of the structures were burnt down by the British, the only one home is the Meeker House which reflects history. Featuring the Greek Revival, Romanesque, and Federal styles of architecture, as the main designs of the area, the place is a great site to visit and re live the history of the district.
