Highrise Tower Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 I found a rare Alfred C. Finn drawing! Maybe it's kind of rare due to the offensive name? I never knew HCFN turned into Texas Southern University. Cool history! Beautiful campus master plan drawing. Found this drawing on the UH Digital Collections. Houston College for Negros Lamar Q. Cato, Architect A.C. Finn, Consultant Photograph of architectural drawing, Houston College for Negroes. The Houston College for Negroes was initially established in 1935 and functioned at a temporary location at Jack Yates High School for eleven years. The campus was moved to its permanent location southeast of downtown in 1946. The 53 acres of land were donated by Hugh Roy Cullen. The college changed its name to Texas Southern University in 1951. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
