Restoration on the garage






After a nearly 10 year process the last of the original Wagner family buildings is getting it's chance for restoration. Built at roughly the same time as the main house the garage has held up well for a 90 year old building. A couple years ago staff replaced the roof and supporting sub-structure. This year we have plans to replace the floor, doors, windows and rebuild a replica of the bi-fold doors that originally hung at the entrance to the garage. In the historic picture Martin Wagner is seen standing just south and west of the building.
