The Grange Move & Restoration

Studies have been done to determine how the house looked in Hamilton's time, and the National Park Service intends to fully restore the exterior and make it possible to view the entire Grange. In its new Saint Nicholas Park location, it will be possible to appreciate fully the beauty of the home that Hamilton helped design and which he called his "sweet project." The interior of the house will re-open to the public in 2011.

Learn more about this ongoing restoration project by adding your contact information to our e-mail list, and learn about how the Grange moved here in the move updates. This link has archival images and video of the preparation for the event and of moving day.
