54 Howell Street, NE Historic Structure Report Martin Luther King, Jr. National Historical Park August 2019
Panamerican Consultants, Inc. with Wiss, Janney Elstner Associates and WFT Architects, PA. 2019. 54 Howell Street, NE Historic Structure Report Martin Luther King, Jr. National Historical Park August 2019. PMIS 225886. Region 2 (Southeast Regional) Office / National Park Service. Atlanta, Georgia
The telling of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s life and legacy is larger than the historic structures within the park and cannot be told just through the preservation of the historic buildings within the Martin Luther King, Jr. National Historical Park. However, Historic Structure Reports (HSRs) are important treatment documents that help with preservation efforts on the historic structures throughout the park, through architectural assessments, historic background information for context, and chronology of development and use, all of which condensed provides the park a tool for repair, rehabilitation and preservation for those homes that Dr. King knew in his childhood. The reports will give the reader a better understanding of the architectural landscape of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s Birth Home neighborhood and the people who lived there and helped shape the life of one of the greatest leaders of the civil rights movement.
