MCDOUGALD TERRACE
Comments
McDougald Terrace was developed on vacant land east of Hayti and NCCU as part of large-scale public housing development in Durham, funded and authorized by the Housing Act of 1949. Two major, racially-segregated projects were developed in the early 1950s - Few Gardens, for white residents, McDougald Terrace, for African-American residents.
Looking northeast from NCCU towards the Durham Cotton Mfg Co buildings - the tree-filled area in between would become McDougald Terrace
From near Ellis Road, looking west-northwest, pre-McDougald Terrace, late 1940s.
Few Gardens was completed in 1952-53, and McDougald Terrace in 1954.
Similar view to the east-looking bird's eye above, with a new McDougald Terrace in the background.
