Posting Information
We spend a lot of time traveling the state and checking out local newspapers, but we can’t keep up with all the preservation activity in every part of the state all the time, so WE NEED YOUR HELP! If you have an important preservation event or issue happening in your Mississippi town or region, please send me the information so I can post something for everyone to see and discuss.
If you want to go a little further and write up some thoughts on a topic or two every once in a while, you can post as a Guest Writer–just get in touch via the contact form below and we can talk.
I don’t know if I missed it somewhere or not, but can you please identify the building that is in the header? thanks!
Oh, right–forgot to do that! It’s Bailey Junior High School right here in Jackson. Built 1936-37 as a PWA project and designed by Jackson’s very own Overstreet & Town.
Flickr has more pictures of it at http://flickr.com/search/?w=all&q=bailey+high+school+jackson&m=text
I linked this site on Resources on Preservation in Pink. Hope you don’t mind!
Of course not–I’m honored–thanks!
Any chance you’ll be visiting Woodville? I lived there for a number of years. They have a Main Street program which has been fairly successful. Would love to know your thoughts. Tom
There’s definitely a chance–I’m here and there and everywhere. Haven’t been there in a while, so should probably get down there. I had no idea you had ties there!
Tell us Malvaney, what does the 2011 budget mean for preservation in Mississippi?
