Description
Historic Mount Airy North Carolina Historic Tour brochure containing a tour map and points of interest
The fabric of Mount Airy's historic district dates primarily from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. A wide and sophisticate variety of architectural styles is represented in the district, reflecting the prosperity during its major growth period. The distinguishing feature of the architecture is the use of the light colored granite taken from the enormous open faced quarry located just east of town. Another feature of the district is the remarkably unaltered and intact condition of the residences.
