The District of Columbia Public Library. The National Center for Civil and Human Rights in Atlanta. And the monumental National Museum of African American History and Culture on the National Mall. Durham architect Phil Freelon designed buildings that serve the public and honor our past.

A 1975 graduate and distinguished alumnus of @ncstatedesign, Freelon also left his mark on the Triangle community with projects such as the Durham Bulls Athletic Park, the Durham County Human Services Building — and several structures on NC State’s campus, including the revamped @ncstategreggmuseum of Art & Design.

Freelon died in 2019 at the age of 66, but his legacy as a shaper of public spaces endures. Raleigh’s new Freedom Park, conceived to honor the contributions and struggle of Black North Carolinians, will follow his design.
