Rev. M.L. Latta House, Historic African American educational building in Oberlin, Raleigh, North Carolina.

The Rev. M.L. Latta House featured Queen Anne architectural elements with a Tuscan order wraparound porch at 1001 Parker Street in Raleigh.

Morgan London Latta, a freedman and Shaw University graduate, established Latta University in 1892 as a trade school for African Americans until 1920.

The building represented educational advancement for freed slaves and orphans in North Carolina through its connection to Latta University's educational mission.

The National Register of Historic Places listed the property in 2002, covering two acres at coordinates 35°47'53"N and 78°39'47"W.

A fire in January 2007 reduced the structure to its brick foundation, leading to the property's transformation into a public park.

Location: North Carolina

Architectural style: Queen Anne style architecture in the United States, Colonial Revival architecture

GPS coordinates: 35.79803,-78.66308
