- Abstract
- The East Riverside Photographs Collection contains over 230 photographs, documents, and postcards donated by individuals and families associated with the East Riverside urban redevelopment project of Asheville, North Carolina. Many are turn-of-the-century and from notable Asheville, Baltimore, MD, and other city photographic studios. The relationship among the photographs is unclear, as most were abandoned or donated materials gathered when the East Riverside community was undergoing redevelopment. The majority of the images are unidentified and represent many families in the African American community.
