Description
“The community house was a common project, with at least seventeen known to survive in the state. The style of building differed from community to community. In Macon, a one story wooden bungalow-style structure was built…” (Gatlin, 2008, p. 5).
The former community house is now used as the Noxubee Post 63 of the American Legion. The building is part of the Macon Historic District.
