538 East State Street is a historic building in Savannah, Georgia, United States. It is located in the northeastern tything of Greene Square and was designated a historic building in 1973.[1] Originally built for a William Ricker in 1818, it was later sold to an Abraham Ricker in 1821. Then in 1861 it was held by Joseph Burke, a cotton merchant and co-founder of the Bank of Commerce, until 1868.[2] It is part of the Savannah Historic District, and it stands immediately to the east of the John Dorsett House, the smallest free-standing house in the city.[1]
