YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThere are only about a dozen or so Black architects practicing their craft in Minnesota, but one of the men who helped build the Twin Cities was the first African American architect in the state.
Clarence Wigington moved from Omaha to St. Paul in 1914. Even though he had no formal training, he became a senior draftsman for the Office of St. Paul City Architect and went on to become the first licensed Black architect in the state as well as the first African American municipal architect in the country.
