I started a Restoration section, although this has only the bare bones information. I also found mention of a book (about Raiford Stripling), that should have a lot of details about the restoration. Stripling was the lead architect, and this essentially launched his career, I think. I don't think they have this at my library, but I'm willing to get it by interlibrary loan later this year if no one else is able to do the research by then.

I think that book's likely to be valuable; there's precious little that's useful and citeable apart from the bare bones, which is why I haven't made a start on it myself. Acroterion(talk) 22:51, 20 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
