HISTORIC BUFFALO ZOO GATES DESIGNED BY AFRICAN AMERICAN LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT/ARCHITECT LISTED AS LANDMARK

            Buffalo Zoo Gates Nominated to National Register of Historic Places

San Antonio, Texas, March 26, 2013 - The National Register of Historic Places nomination for the “Entrance Court at the Buffalo Zoo”, produced by two Texas architects, was approved on March 21 by the New York State Board for Historic Preservation (State Review Board) for state landmark designation.  The nomination will be forwarded to the prestigious National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) administered by the National Park Service. In 1935 Buffalo African American architect and landscape architect, John Edmonston Brent AIA, designed gates number three (original #7) and four (original #1) at the Buffalo Zoo, the third oldest zoo in America. Nationally recognized consultants Everett L. Fly FASLA and Ellen P. Hunt AIA researched, interpreted and prepared the NRHP nomination.

“The existence of such a strategic landscape composition at such a prominent public facility, documented by original drawings produced by an African American landscape architect and architect of the pre-World War II era, is extremely rare and nationally significant”  said landscape architect and architect Everett Fly.

Only four other African American architects, or landscape architects, are known to have designed prominent municipal facilities in the United States prior to World War II.  Everett L. Fly discovered seventeen original drawings of zoo projects prepared by Mr. Brent in March of 2012 while working on the Michigan Street African American Heritage Corridor project.  Fly met with Buffalo Zoo President/CEO, Dr. Donna Fernandes, and her staff to compare historical documentation and explore the feasibility of placing the gates on the National Register of Historic Places.  Collaborating with Ms. Hunt, Fly went on to locate a total of forty original Brent drawings.  Fly and Hunt formed a relationship with Mr. Brent’s descendants who shared additional historical documentation and accounts.  Fly and Hunt invested more than five hundred hours to research and interpret documentation necessary to prepare a complete NRHP nomination in December, 2012.  

“Mr. Brent’s life and accomplishments are exemplary.  There are universal lessons in every aspect of his life.”  said Everett Fly.

If you would like more information about this topic, or to schedule an interview with Everett Fly and Ellen Hunt, please call 210/826-4440 or e-mail Mr. Fly at efly@everettfly.com.
