The Charles Jesse Bynum Reid Foundation, partnering with Preservation North Carolina, is currently focusing on the preservation and restoration of the Charles Jesse Bynum Reid ancestral home on Sacco Street in Belmont. Because the ancestral home is one of the three best surviving examples of Craftsman architecture in Gaston County, the only building remaining from 1920 in the African American neighborhood, and the homeplace of Reid High School founder Professor Charles Jesse Bynum Reid, it is critical that this home be saved.
