Please know that I am in full favor of this project. I have reviewed the plans and it looks to be a wonderful way to
preserve history and at the same time look to the future. Thank you for your time, Mary Rogers

Greetings,
This note is an endorsement of the Park Central Housing
Development/Washington Heritage House Project submitted by Grace Hayes
Blagdon, Patricia Washington McGraw, PhD and Kwendeche, AIA.
wholeheartedly support this project as an innovative and exciting endeavor.
It is an appropriate companion and a true complement to the Little Rock
Central High School National Park site, Little Rock Central High School, the
existing museum, the proposed visitors' center, to the overall neighborhood,
and to the City of Little Rock.
The proposed programs from this project will address human relations, global
issues, improve communications among peoples, and will be good for the
neighborhood, the city, state, and the nation. I urge the Little Rock Planning
Commission and any authority that reviews this application to approve this
very worthy concept.
By approving this application, a strong and lasting relationship between Little
Rock Central High School, the new visitors' center and museum, the City of
Little Rock and most of all, the neighborhood, shall evolve. Mixed-use
communities exist all over the world — and certainly in many areas in Little
Rock.
The concept of this project speaks volumes. Sometimes opportunity knocks
only once. We encourage the Little Rock Planning Commission to open the
door!
Thank you.
Mary C. Rogers
