The historic Lowry House, originally constructed in the 1850s, faced the threat of demolition due to its location in the future parking lot of Baptist Hospital. However, the Mississippi Heritage Trust (MHT) stepped in to save the house and undertook its relocation and full restoration. Collaborating closely with the Mississippi Department of Archives and History, CCD played a pivotal role in determining which modifications from the 1900s were “non-contributing” and which were “historically significant.” Once identified, CCD provided plans and specifications for the restoration, reinstating features such as operational double-hung wood windows and real lime plaster interior walls. Today, the Mississippi Heritage Trust uses the restored Lowry House as its headquarters, offering the venue for elegant events throughout the year.
