How do I find information about local architecture?

Answer

There are multiple research guides to help you find resources about architecture and urban design in Charlotte and the surrounding areas.

The course guide Charlotte Resources is part of the Urban Design Research Guide. There is also a Charlotte Neighborhoods guide that includes links to historical newspapers, GIS data, and reports.

You can also use the guide Historic Charlotte Neighborhoods from Special Collections & Archives. This guide provides histories of minority communities in Charlotte, some of which have disappeared or been gentrified, but many are still active.

Inside of the Architecture Library, you can find physical blueprints and drawings that are available for you to use inside of the library.
