Levy and Kress Field Trip

Levy and Kress are located on the corner of Main Street and Third Street

Levy was built in 1866 and Kress was built between 1908-1912.

The Levy building takes up the corner of the block and the Kress building is behind in the shape of an L. The Kress building is very famous in our history as it marked a civil rights movement when 6 Southern University Students were refused service and performed a sit in in front of the cafeteria.












These pictures are of the inside of the Levy building. Just keep in mind that no one has used these buildings in a really long time, and this is what happens to them when they are neglected. Please hold your breath for the mold smell can be slightly unbearable.
