Description
This first part of the Riley House Project Correspondence contains letters and memos relating to the project from 1977-1979. Though John G. Riley's family lived in the house till 1973, the city bought the property after and planned to build an electrical substation on the site. Most of this correspondence relates to the research made on the site by the Historic Tallahassee Preservation Board and the addition of the house to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. The correspondence in this folder includes maps of the site, letters relating to the Riley Foundation, letters from and to senators, and other things relating to the Riley House Project to preserve this site.
