Meets the River
This building (ca. 1881), formerly the headquarters of the Delta Democrat
Times, was immortalized in 1952 by Hodding Carter in Where Main Street Meets the
River, the memoir of this Pulitzer Prize-winning editor, who stood for racial
justice and religious tolerance. Listed on the National Register of
Historic Places in 1982. ~ text of marker
