Kudos to Wilson County’s own Eric Woodard, winner of Greensboro History Museum’s 2024 Voices of a City Award, for his vision and drive to garner recognition of Greensboro, North Carolina’s South Benbow Road neighborhood as a National Historic District. The district is significant for its Mid-Century Modern architecture, many designed by architects trained at NC A&T State University and as the home of leaders of and participants in Greensboro’s Civil Rights Movement. South Benbow Road District will be Greensboro’s first historically African American neighborhood to be listed in the National Register of Historic Places.
Join Woodard and others celebrating this milestone on February 15 in Greensboro!
