I grew up in Salisbury but have lived in Winston-Salem for 27 years now. I go back to Salisbury every so often but had no idea what was happening with this house. On Father's Day I came over to put flowers on my dad's grave and drove around to take some photos of the town I so love. I cannot tell you my reaction when I looked over and saw the house totally restored. It truly brought tears to my eyes. After standing in burnt ruins for 30 years I had pretty much given up any hope of it being saved. Thank you so much to all who had a part in saving this part of Salisbury's history. It's is another jewel in the crown of Salisbury!
Salisbury does a good job with historic preservation of the landmarks in the area. Kannapolis is too darn busy tearing itself down at the mercy of that greed-hungry Murdock.

Dig the pic with all the orbs. Love all the beautiful historic homes in Salisbury.
It reminds me of "It's a Wonderful Life"
