Albert Wheeler Todd (April 20, 1856 – December 30, 1924)[1] was an architect in Charleston, South Carolina. He is known for his neoclassical architecture (colonial revival architecture), the design on his own home[2] and of a home for Tristram Hyde. Todd was the senior partner at the firm of Todd & Benson which became Todd, Simons & Todd. Joseph F. Leitner worked with him. Todd also served in the legislature from 1910 until 1924 and was a State Senator.[2][3]

Todd was born in Anderson, South Carolina. He practiced in Augusta, Georgia before relocating to Charleston in 1899.[2]

Todd's firm Todd & Benson is credited with designing Academy of Our Lady of Mercy.[4] He is credited with the remodel of a row of older buildings into the Commercial Club building (later converted into the Timrod Inn), and (with Albert Simmons) design of the Thompson Memorial Infirmary (later Riverside Hospital).[3]

Todd died in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on December 30, 1924. Todd had at least six grandchildren.[3]

Todd designed the sunroom and three-story piazza added to the hotel during a 1904 renovation.[11] The hotel was razed in the 1960s and replaced with a facsimile now known as the Mills House Hotel at 115 Meeting St., Charleston, South Carolina.[12]

  • Bennett School (remodel), 61 George St., Charleston, SC (1910). The firm of Todd & Benson thoroughly remodeled the existing building at the Bennett School. The work included adding a stair hall and new roof, but otherwise the work was largely confined to the interior layout and mechanicals.[14]
