Catalyst Design / Clearscapes

Shaw University is the recipient of a $150,000 grant from the National Trust for Historic Preservation, through its HBCU Cultural Heritage Stewardship Initiative. This grant will be used to develop a plan for the preservation of important architecture, historic assets, cultural landscapes, and collections, which represent more than 150 years of learning, growing, and empowerment for students, faculty, and alumni.

Outcomes

The campus-wide historic resources study will enable the university to develop rehabilitationplans for additional historic buildings as well as address the goal of connecting its campus back to downtown Raleigh while removing public access barriers.
