http://www.lib.ncsu.edu/findingaids/mc00326

The George Smart Papers, 1959-2002, document the professional activities of George McCollum Smart and his architectural firm. The collection is arranged into five series: drawings, project files, professional papers, electronic files, and photographic materials. Drawings include blueprints, sketches, and working drawings, representing a variety of projects undertaken by Smart and his firm. Project files contain correspondence, financial records, contracts and agreements, building and land surveys, design narratives and specifications, material samples, and notes relating to Smart’s design, construction, and renovation projects. Professional papers primarily include reference material relating to the design of educational and church facilities, construction materials, standards, and codes. Photographic materials include prints, negatives, and slides depicting the design, construction, and completion of various projects, including several churches and schools. George McCollum Smart (1931-2003) was an architect based in Raleigh, North Carolina from the early 1960s to 2002. Smart was born in South Carolina and attended high school in Virginia. He received a Bachelor of Arts in English Literature from Randolph-Macon College in 1952 and a Bachelor of Architecture from North Carolina State College in 1959. Smart received his certification to practice architecture from the North Carolina Board of Architecture in 1961. He was a member of the American Institute of Architects. Prior to opening his own architectural firm, Smart was employed by Holloway and Reeves, Haskins and Rice, and Walter Burgess. From approximately 1964 on Smart presided over his own firm and had a series of partners including Charles Woodall, Max Isley, Troy Herring, and Mete Gurel. Smart designed and renovated many buildings including churches, schools, and post offices, primarily in North Carolina. His firm was also active in the areas of asbestos removal and fireproofing of public buildings. Smart retired from practice in 2002 and died in 2003.
