Phoenix Iron Works (also known as Kehoe Iron Foundry) is a historic building located in downtown Savannah, Georgia, United States. A former foundry, the property is now owned by Randolph Street Development, having been revitalized as part of a redevelopment of 6.3 acres (2.5 ha) of brownfield land that had remained dormant for almost thirty years.[1][2]
The building, located in Savannah's Trustees' Garden Ward,[3] was completed in 1873. James Monahan was the original owner.[4]
Irishman William Kehoe became the owner of the foundry in 1879 and renamed it, the following year, to Kehoe Iron Foundry.[4][5] The building was altered in 1883, including the removal of the cupola above the central section.
The building's 21st-century renovation won the Marguerite Williams Award for Excellence in Rehabilitation.[1]
