COLUMBIA — Seven properties have been named "most notable" Tuesday by the Columbia Historic Preservation Commission. Members of the commission, the properties' owners and representatives and the public shared stories and histories of each property.
"We try to have a balance of both residential, commercial properties, academic buildings and ecclesiastic buildings, like churches," commission chairman Brian Treece said.
The seven notable properties are: Phi Kappa Psi fraternity house, a house on Bingham Road, the stables at Stephens College, the brick streets throughout Columbia, MU's Schlundt Hall, the Berry Building and Jewell Cemetery.
