Five Row

How can we see the Reynolda estate in the context of the Jim Crow South? Five Row was a segregated community for African American farm workers and their families, located on the edge of the estate. Residents of Five Row dug the foundations for Reynolda House, cleared land for the agricultural fields, and worked the farm from the 1910s until late 1950s, when Five Row was demolished for the building of Silas Creek Parkway.
