Restoration
In two separate capital campaigns in the past 10 years, we have raised funds to:
- rehabilitate #19 Madison Street for use as a Visitors' Center and convert #21 Madison Street to a much-needed parking lot.
- restore the exterior of the House, securing the foundation, replacing the roof, re-pointing the brick, repairing the chimneys, updating all mechanical and electrical systems-all to ensure the structure's integrity for decades to come.
Now that the exterior of the House is secure, we are turning our attention to the interior. The full interior restoration includes comprehensive conservation and restoration of ceilings, walls, floors, wood and wood trim, lighting, and stairs, and will require the services of experts in historic plaster, paint, wallpaper, and glass conservation. It will touch every room in the House.
Our goal is to restore Miss Anthony's House to its authentic, historic condition when she last lived here.
The House remains open during the restoration, and many visitors have enjoyed seeing this work in progress. If you haven't been to the Susan B. Anthony House recently, come and see all that has been accomplished.>
The Susan B. Anthony House is a non-profit, non-partisan,
tax-deductible organization.
