Baird School For Boys
The Baird School for Boys was run by Major J.G. Baird of South Carolina who purchased the wooden building once used by the Macon School for Boys, which closed in 1890. Originally, Baird called the school the Charlotte Military Institute because military tactics were taught at the school. Later he erected the brick building seen here, which was on Poplar Street and changed the name to the Baird School for Boys. The school continued from 1890 until his death in 1927.

The North Carolina Medical College receives a charter in 1892. Originally the medical school is located at Davidson College, but the upper classes attend school in Charlotte near the Presbyterian Hospital at Trade and Mint Street. In 1907, all of the medical students occupy this building on Sixth and Church Streets.
