MoreThis collection contains large-format photocopies of architectural drawings of the S. P. Alexander residence in Forest Hills, a residential district in Durham, North Carolina; and architectural blueprints of a residence in Hope Valley, a suburb of Durham, North Carolina. George Watts Carr, Sr. (1893-1975) was a Durham, N.C., architect. After heading the Durham office of architects Northup and O'Brien from 1926 to 1927, he had his own practice in the same city. He was primarily responsible for projects that his firm produced in the Durham area, especially in the Forest Hills neighborhood. Carr received honor awards from the North Carolina Chapter of the American Institute of Architects, for which he served as vice president 1936-1937.
