During Phase I and Phase II of the restoration of the Rohwer Relocation Center Cemetery, John Greer of WER Architects/Planners in Little Rock served as principal project architect. Lorraine Schnabel of Schnabel Conservation, L.L.C in New Jersey consulted on masonry materials during both phases as well. This clip documents the importance of the cemetery as a cultural resource.
