The George H McIntyre House, built in 1824 was a lovely Greek Revival style home on the St. Clair river in St. Clair, Michigan. It faced the St. Clair river with an impressive lower and upper front porch with large columns as well as a side porch. The home was constructed with supplies obtained from Captain John Clarke's supply dock, including a door that was marked in pencil "Captain Clark's dock" found after many layers of paint were removed. Support beams visible in the basement were hand hewn tree trunks and during a closet update, hand hewn blacksmith nails were recovered. The home remained in the same family from 1824 until 1972 when Olga Huse, the last member of the McIntyre family, sold the home and the lot the home sits on as well as the adjacent north and south lots. The home was sold again in 2018 and demolished in 2019 to make way for a new home on the St. Clair river.
