The Sonja Haynes Stone Center for Black Culture and History

Younge Architects Report on Possible Locations for the Sonja Stone Black Cultural Center

Document Description: The BCC Advisory Board and the Provost’s BCC Working Group employed Yongue Architects of Durham to make a recommendations for each of the proposed sites. Yongue’s report favored the Wilson-Dey Site, stating that “putting a building here would reflect a serious commitment from the University to its students and their awareness of Black culture.” Locating the building in Coker Woods, they explained, would not be “perceived as a prestigious site.”
