Scotch and Soda the Lions

Tours of the Mansion are available by appointment only, except for October and December, when Ghost and Christmas Tours are regularly scheduled. The home is available for rent for special occasions or can accommodate overnight guests, with advance reservations required. Donations are encouraged to help the family offset the cost of maintaining this nearly 100 year old historic home. Scotch and Soda are the iconic lions that stand guard over the 1923 Georgian Mansion at the corner of Hampton Blvd and Spotswood Avenue, Norfolk, VA. The original lions disappeared in 2013 and were replaced by the concrete giants known to the community as Scotch and Soda. They have hundreds of followers on Facebook and commuters along Hampton Blvd. enjoy their ever changing wardrobe & costumes.
