MoreThe collection of Voorhees & Everhart Architectural Drawings, 1952-1963, of the High Point Friends Meeting House contains original architectural drawings (as well as scans) of the Georgian Revival-style High Point Friends Meeting House in High Point, North Carolina. Louis Francis Voorhees (1892-1974) was a prominent architect practicing in High Point, North Carolina, during the middle of the twentieth century. In 1938, he formed a partnership with Eccles D. Everhart, another established High Point architect. Many of Voorhees's architectural commissions were in High Point, a city that was experiencing rapid growth because of the expansion of textile manufacturing. The High Point Friends Meeting House was constructed in 1955 and 1956 from a design by a member of the congregation, Howard Olive, who was also employed with the firm Voorhees and Everhart.
