On the cover: Glencoe Mill Village, 2009 The mission of Preservation North Carolina is to protect and promote buildings, sites and landscapes important to the diverse heritage of North Carolina. 2
Carolina Society for the Preservation of Antiquities was formed.
Its original vision was to encourage the reconstruction of Tryon
Palace in New Bern, the royal governor’s residence that also served as North Carolina’s colonial capitol. When the Antiquities Society was founded, Tryon Palace was an archaeological site buried deep under a
US highway, so the plan to reconstruct it was gutsy. The Antiquities Society stuck with its vision and by the late 1950s succeeded in getting Tryon Palace rebuilt and open to the public. Through the years the volunteer organization also collected money to help launch many of the state’s other early museum efforts. By the 1970s, the old society was running out of steam and money. A new, more activist generation was getting involved, motivated by the “demolition derby” that was perpetrated by the urban renewal and interstate highway programs and by suburban sprawl. The nation’s bicentennial in 1976 was also sparking renewed interest in America’s history. In 1974, the society reorganized itself as the Historic Preservation Society of North Carolina, Inc., and in 1975 set up a new statewide revolving fund as a legally separate entity. The purpose of the new Historic Preservation Fund of North Carolina, Inc., was to acquire and resell endangered historic properties
across the state. This first-in-the-nation statewide fund focused primarily on rural and small-town houses that were sitting vacant and forlorn across the state. In 1983, the two organizations merged, and The Historic Preservation Foundation of North Carolina, Inc., (or Preservation North Carolina, as we know it today) was created. Since the beginning of the fund in 1975, PNC has been directly involved in the preservation of more than 725 historic properties statewide, representing more than $350 million in private investment. Most of these properties have been “poor dogs” acquired by PNC for “adoption“ by worthy preservationists. This issue of North Carolina Preservation contains only a tiny fraction of the properties that have been saved or secured by PNC. PNC has striking before-and-after images of more than 400 properties—here’s just a small sampling. 3

n the late 1970s, PNC’s Endangered Properties Program (aka the revolving fund) worked with vacant rural houses. The landscape of North Carolina seemed to be dotted by hundreds of deserted antebellum Federal and Greek Revival plantation houses. There was scarcely a market for these properties. The first property “revolved” by the fund was Bingham School in Orange County. Within years, it was operating as a successful bed and breakfast.

n the early 1980s, North Carolina was selected by the National Trust for Historic Preservation as one of the first six states to participate in the National Main Street Program. The fund’s board set a goal of saving at least one historic property in each of the five new Main Street communities.
The Masonic Temple in downtown Shelby was sold by PNC for conversion into upscale residential and office units. These apartments, named Mason Square, were among the state’s very first downtown living units in a half-century. The Hedrick Block, a grouping of four buildings joined by a continuous façade in the heart of downtown Salisbury, was badly damaged by fire. The fund acquired two of the buildings while the bulldozers were still at work. It nationally advertised a building-and-a half, and a local dentist acquired and renovated the damaged property. Today it’s hard to imagine Salisbury without its fully intact 100 block downtown.

n the late 1980s, the wave of demolition that wiped out vacant public school buildings seemed inexhaustible. PNC did a series of publications about the 3Rs for School (Rescue, Renovate, Reuse) and started using the slogan, “Historic Preservation: The Ultimate Recycling.” But, even more important, PNC developed special expertise in working with vacated school buildings. Since then, PNC has purchased more than 30 school buildings from local school boards for private reuse. The Charles L. Coon School in Wilson and Mulberry Street School in Statesville are but two examples of schools adapted into senior affordable housing by developers working under PNC’s auspices.
PNC’s work with schools expanded to include other vacant surplus public properties such as hospitals, libraries, and municipal buildings.

n the early 1990s, PNC received the gifts of several exceedingly important properties for long-term stewardship. After its formation, PNC’s revolving fund was routinely presented as the antidote to the house museum. Over and over, PNC’s mantra, “not every house can become a house museum,” was repeated. But some properties demanded special attention because of their condition, their level of significance or their ownership. Within a few short years, PNC was given Coolmore Plantation near Tarboro, the Banker’s House in Shelby, the Bellamy Mansion in Wilmington, and El Nido in Shelby; it also took on responsibility for managing Ayr Mount in Hillsborough and acquired Union Tavern in Milton after a devastating fire. PNC had to pioneer new ways of thinking about how to ensure the stewardship of major properties that required special private investment beyond simple private ownership.

n the mid-1990s, after the passage of NAFTA, North Carolina witnessed the abandonment of vacant historic industrial buildings at an alarming rate. PNC dug in with an “Industrial Heritage� program through its revolving fund. First, the work focused on mill buildings; then it expanded to include the surrounding mill villages. In 1995, Unifi donated the Edenton Cotton Mill and mill village to PNC. PNC developed a plan for the revitalization of the village that succeeded far beyond anyone’s expectations. Nearly 60 mill houses were privately renovated, new infill houses based on mill houses were constructed, and the mill itself was converted into upscale condominiums. The tax assessment for the property rose from $1.45 million in 1998 to more than $30 million in 2014.

fter the first blush of success in Edenton, PNC purchased Glencoe Mill and Mill Village in Alamance County in a bargain sale in 1997. This property had languished for nearly a half-century, challenging the notion of what’s salvageable. PNC had always worked with “poor dogs,” but this “dog” was barely alive. The significance of the 19th century mill and mill village demanded bold action. After investing nearly $1.5 million to acquire the 100 acres, install water and sewer lines, stabilize long-vacant houses, and build new roads where the old ones had eroded into little more than ditches, PNC found a surge of interest and again sold house after house for renovation. PNC’s work in Edenton and Glencoe set the stage for its advocacy for state rehabilitation tax credits. Challenging properties like these would require additional funding. Initiated in 1998, the state tax credits incentivized more than $1.7 billion in historic rehabilitation across the state within their first fifteen years. Shortly after acquiring Glencoe, PNC received the donation of Loray Mill in Gastonia from Firestone in 1998. With Loray, a six-story building with more than two acres of roof, PNC had a tiger by the tail. Many in Gastonia wanted the building to be demolished because of the notorious 1929 strike, and its size challenged traditional ideas of market capacity. Before finally selling in 2013 for renovation, the building had to weather two recessions and wait for the creation of a special incentive for the revitalization of vacant industrial buildings. The “mills bill” resulted in nearly $1 billion of mill building reuse.

T
he basic premise of PNC’s revolving fund really hasn’t changed much since it sold its first property in 1977. Today it continues to work with rural houses, schools, mills and more, but for the last decade its special initiative has focused on struggling neighborhoods. PNC has worked in East Durham and Goldsboro to try to jump start the private real estate market in neighborhoods blighted by low homeownership and high disinvestment. Both neighborhoods are now showing very encouraging signs in the post-recession economy. Like so many of PNC’s earlier successes, these projects will take years and years to play out. Hopefully, they too will rewrite the book on how to preserve places that matter.

S
ince the mid-1990s, PNC has been working to preserve important examples of Mid-Century Modernism (MCM). It now has easements or covenants on nearly a score of MCM structures. These properties are particularly challenging because they tend to be small structures on big parcels—ripe for teardown!
Seventy-five years later, PNC’s work continues to be visionary and gutsy. Thank you for helping us build this remarkable record of achievement. ’

S 102 Bizzell Street Laurinburg $25,000 See (G) on map Built in 1893, this two-story brick building is the oldest building in downtown Laurinburg’s historic district. First known as the Central Hotel and later Hotel Dixie, its proximity to the railroad greeted passenger train visitors arriving from Wilmington or points further inland. It served the African American community as a hotel and boarding house through the first half of the 20th century and then was the location of popular local restaurants. What the Old Central Hotel lacks in ornamentation it makes up for in sturdy masonry construction and a commanding view of the busy seat of Scotland County. The two-tiered wood porch shades the welcoming entry into a large open space that until recent years catered to diners (and even a pool hall or two). Large windows on the front first story let in plenty of light, while windows along the sides and second floor are six-over-six wood sash. The interior includes a generous space on the first floor for dining/gathering with smaller areas toward the back for kitchen/service activities and two guestrooms. The building requires a complete rehabilitation including all new mechanical systems, repointing, paint, and cosmetic upgrades. As a contributing structure in the National Register Historic District it is eligible for historic tax credits. The property is positioned for a variety of creative uses including restaurant, inn, retail or office. Square Feet: 3,528; Lot Size: 0.057 acre; Zoning: Commercial.
4976 Ross West Road Dunn $50,000 See (H) on map This spacious, charming Greek Revival plantation house was built around 1835 and served as a field hospital for wounded Union troops during the Civil War’s Battle of Averasboro. The two-story, single-pile frame house has had some material changes, but it retains many original features, including lovely sidelights and transoms, a Flemish bond chimney, a decorative balustrade, and much more. On two beautiful acres, the house retains its sense of place in the landscape and significance for its association with the Battle at Averasboro, which was fought in March 1865, as General Sherman moved his army north towards Goldsboro. The William T. Smith House will require a complete rehabilitation. Since it is located just inside the southern boundary of the Averasboro Battlefield Historic District, it qualifies for historic preservation tax credits.

The house is situated at the top of the deep lot, allowing for a spacious and private back yard. The house requires a complete rehabilitation, including all new mechanical systems—electrical, plumbing, and HVAC. In addition to significant carpentry and cosmetic repairs, the house needs updated kitchen and baths. This home is an excellent way to be a part of the revitalization of downtown Goldsboro. Located in the local Goldsboro Historic District it is eligible for historic preservation tax credits. Square Feet: 3,250; Lot Size: 0.28 acre; Zoning: R-6.

1700 Brices Creek Road New Bern $1,300,000 See (M) on map The Joseph DeLeon Williams, Sr. House is a magical site on five private acres with a sweeping lawn and moss draped trees that lead to 544 feet of river frontage. Known as Pembrokeon-the-Trent, the Williams House was constructed in 1906 on a hill overlooking the Trent River feet away from the original site of an important Georgian-period plantation house called Pembroke—home of North Carolina’s second governor Abner Nash from 1782-1786—and destroyed by Union troops encamped on the property during the occupation of New Bern. This property includes Nash’s tomb as well as the pilings of the first bridge to span the river to connect the Pembroke and Beaufort Roads. Built and occupied by one family for 108 years, the spacious home features a wide center hall, tall ceilings, double parlors, pocket doors, eight mantels, some original light fixtures, and a wide, inviting wrap-around porch shaded by a lush canopy of trees. This one of a kind waterfront property awaits the careful rehabilitation from a lover of history and architecture. Updates to mechanical systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) are needed, as well as updates to the kitchen and baths. Square Feet: 4,000+/-; Lot Size: 5.1 acres; Zoning: Residential.

Tax Credits Available Valuable tax incentives are available in North Carolina for the rehabilitation of historic structures. Owners of incomeproducing historic structures who qualify for the 20% federal rehabilitation tax credits may also take a 20% North Carolina income tax credit, combining to create a 40% credit on qualified rehabilitation expenses. Additionally, a 30% North Carolina income tax credit is available for the rehabilitation of non-income-producing historic structures (including owner-occupied historic
residences). Eligible properties must be certified historic structures (that is, listed on the National Register of Historic Places or a contributing property in a National Register historic district), and rehabilitation work must be done in accordance with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation.
The North Carolina Historic Preservation Office (NCHPO) strongly urges owners interested in receiving tax credits to submit their rehabilitation plans for approval prior to commencement of work. For more details, visit the NCHPO website at http:// www.hpo.ncdcr.gov/tchome. htm, call 919-807-6570, or find NCHPO on facebook. You can also visit www.
