Abstract:

The Catawba County Historical Association has restored two of the town of Hickory's local architectural treasures--the 1887 Harper House and the 1912 Lyerly House. The process cost $2 million and took five years of restorations. The Harper House functions as a house museum dedicated to the interpretation of Hickory history and Victorian life in the South. The Lyerly House is a museum with rotating exhibits on the history of Hickory and the surrounding area.
