Hundreds in High Point sign petition to retain Daniel Brooks site name
Hundreds of citizens have signed a petition to keep the name Daniel Brooks attached to a new housing complex in High Point. The African American minister who saw High Point in its infancy was a pillar in the community. He was memorialized by the creation of the Daniel Brooks Homes, a middle-class development built for Blacks in 1942. The aging buildings were recently demolished to make way for a new mixed-income housing development to be named Legacy Ridge.
