Description

A historic house does not have to be a museum to tell its story. Creating a space that serves a community is a way to continue the legacy of a historic house while adding to its history. Case studies of Jan's House in Huntington, WV, and Historic Magnolia House in Greensboro, NC, illustrate historic houses serving the community while honoring their history.
