Summary
editDescriptionEd Norton Road, Cullowhee, NC (46640382521).jpg | One of the earliest sites of Settlement for Western Carolina University faculty and staff was the area around Dix Gap, which sits at the southern end of the old campus in Cullowhee, North Carolina. Constructed around the turn of the 20th Century, the houses were among the first in the area to have indoor plumbing and electricity, taking advantage of the services built by the university to serve its campus back in the early 20th Century. The area was supplanted by later developments such as Buzzard’s Roost and University Heights, which had houses of higher construction quality and larger size than those in the Dix Gap area. The houses in Dix Gap have continued to decline and disappear due to the location at the edge of campus, as well as the aging of the buildings, many of which have not fared well over time. A few have been renovated, but today, most are low-income housing at the edge of campus, and several are vacant, or seriously dilapidated, and one of the houses is slated for demolition for a new townhouse complex, which is to occupy the hillside above the house, with a new driveway to the development taking the place of the house itself. As this area vanishes, so does the history of the community. However, as these houses are not easily reusable, it is unlikely for them to be saved, and it’s just the nature of the continual evolution of this college community that these buildings will disappear for something newer and larger. |
