NewsFlashOption3

The Forsyth County Historic Resources Commission has launched a story map that shares the history of the eighteen businesses in Winston-Salem that were listed in the Green Book between 1938 and 1967. None of the buildings that housed these businesses remain standing, but the story map includes historic photos, maps, and newspaper clippings that illustrate the sites and people who owned and managed the businesses. It is available for you to explore at bit.ly/WSGreenBook. Commission staff welcome stories, feedback, and new information at preservation@cityofws.org.
