The Historic Preservation Office (HPO) will provide a shell database containing limited information on the previously surveyed properties.

  • Complete brief historical and architectural essays concerning the development of Druid Hills. These essays will place Druid Hills in its context as a post-World War II, African American neighborhood on the north side of Charlotte. The principal investigators will conduct windshield surveys of comparable African American subdivisions located around the north/west side of the City and discuss these neighborhoods in the essays.

 

All work will be done according to federal and state architectural survey standards and under the supervision of HPO staff. The survey project will be conducted in accordance with the HPO Environmental Review Branch, Historic Structure Survey Report (HSSR) Standards (2019).
