Porter Leath
Located at 850 N. Manassas, Porter Leath sits on approximately 6 acres and holds two historic structures and a large greenspace on the southern half of the property. The main orphanage building dates to the 1850s and was converted to a medical clinic and office use in the 1970s and 1980s. It has been vacant for over five years. The Gould Cottage building – built in 1927 – was also converted to office space and is currently occupied by the CRA.
Porter Leath is central to Smokey City and is ripe for enhancement through the adaptive reuse process. View the RFP for more details and to submit a proposal.
