Wilmingtons East Side is the oldest residential community in the city. The first Swedish colony settled there in the 1600s, and over time, Jewish, Polish, and African American people followed. By the mid-1950s, the East Side emerged as a predominantly Black, achievement-oriented community--a place where working-class families, Black-owned businesses, and Black doctors, lawyers, teachers, musicians, and community leaders lived, worshipped, and worked together amid segregation. Among historic landmarks are Howard High School, Peoples Settlement Association, Walnut Street Y, St. Michaels School and Nursery, Clifford Brown Walk, Louis Redding House, and multidenominational churches. Situated in an urban setting east of downtown, the East Side is walking distance from the central business district, small retail establishments, and employers.Book specifications:Collection: Images of AmericaDimensions: 234 x 156Author: Hara Wright-SmithCover type: HardcoverPublishing Year: 2022Publishing Month: 1Pages: 130Language: EnglishPublisher: Arcadia Pub (Sc)Weight: 363 g
