In my ARCH 3501 Bachelor of Architecture class with Donna Kacmar, FAIA, we embarked on a project to create a community in the heart of Houston, Texas' Third Ward. This research paper explores the history of Houston, with a focus on how the city's founders, the Allen Brothers, divided it into political and geographic districts known as "wards." The study investigates how the physical characteristics of Third Ward have shaped its urban form, the types of houses built, and the economic disparities among households. Within the context of Third Ward, the research delves into the life cycle of the most prevalent building materials used in the community. It examines their origins, transportation, assembly, and potential for reuse. The aim is to uncover the intricate relationship between materiality, urban morphology, and socio-economic factors within the context of Third Ward.

Our first project last year that got Community Planning Collaborative going. I absolutely loved working on this project, as historic research is one of my most favorite things to do. One of my goals for this year is to get the word our more about this project, and the great work the Florida Chitlin' Circuit Group is doing. The Group is a collective of several Florida Main Street communities working together to document and highlight their Chitlin' Circuit heritage as a means of historic preservation and economic vitality. Research from this project has identified that the Chitlin’ Circuit existed in large part because of what has been identified as “the stroll,” a term coined by musician Walter Barnes in the 1930s to describe commercial and entertainment areas in Black neighborhoods across the country. Florida Main Streets in Black communities are historic evidence of the stroll. These districts, with dance halls, bars, juke joints, and clubs, provided the backbone in which the Chitlin’ Circuit thrived. The Chitlin' Circuit can't be separated from the larger environmental context of neighborhoods and communities. We hope this information will help inform historic preservation efforts, as well as urban planning efforts. I've had two interactions with fellow experienced planners recently that had limited to no knowledge of the history of Black commercial districts and how that played a role in neighborhood history, culture and development. We hope research like this will be of aid.

🙏Looking back on our first year, we are grateful for the first project that got us started. 🎵 The Florida Chitlin' Circuit Research and Documentation Project was completed through a partnership of several Florida Main Street communities and funded by a Florida Division of Historical Resources grant. We took a deep dive into the history of the Circuit in Florida and venues in Jacksonville, St. Petersburg, Fort Pierce, and Eatonville. Thanks to the graphic design skills of Karen Essic, this report really came together and we are so proud of it. 🌟Check it out when you get a chance!

Happy Wednesday!! 😀 It's NATIONAL PRESERVATION MONTH! Author | C. Knighten National Preservation Month, also known as Historic Preservation Month is celebrated during the month of May to remind us about our Nation's heritage. Pervserving our historic buildings and homes is very important to our Nation and communities.

Preserving these places helps us to remember our History and the stories associated with each. Understanding our history is the key to improving our future.

Keeping these stories alive helps us provide a rich and textured history of the people who worked and lived there. Our imaginations can then begin to understand their hardships, what they overcame, and the difficult decisions they made in the face of adversity.
