The Hargraves Community Center is located at 216 North Roberson Street in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Originally known as the Negro Community Center, it was renamed in 1973 after William M. Hargraves, a former member of the Parks and Recreation Commission who played a pivotal role in implementing several programs at the Hargraves Center that greatly benefitted the community. Hargraves died on February 5, 1973, after succumbing to injuries sustained in an auto accident and the center was renamed posthumously in his honor. Construction of the center was originally completed in 1945. Read more on Wikipedia
