Azurest South receives National Historic Landmark Designation

Great news!  Azurest South has received a National Historic Landmark designation from the Department of the Interior.  It was one of 19 recently announced newly National Historic Landmarks.  Located on VSU's campus between the L. Douglas Wilder Cooperative Extension Building and the J.B. Bolling "ROTC" Building, Azurest South is the official Alumni House for the Virginia State University Alumni Association. Completed in 1939 by VSU alumna Amaza Lee Meredith (1895-1984), one of the nation's first documented African American female architects, Azurest South is a significant landmark of African American material culture and design. It showcases Ms. Meredith's courage in presenting non-traditional ideas in the public eye at the state's first land-grant college for African Americans. In 1993, Azurest South was listed in the Virginia Landmarks Register, and in 1994, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places. Additionally, in 2001, it was documented during Women's Month by the National Register of Historic Places.  Azurest South is a gem and treasure for the Alumni Association and the University.
