 Liberty-White Depot Museum, Summit |
Projects to Improve Summit's Future |
Preservation & Renewal |
| The Summit Historical Society is pleased to announce that Mrs. Sue White, along with members of the Neville family, have donated the historic Liberty-White Depot, located on family land in Holmesville, to the Society for restoration as a museum for the citizens of Summit. The Depot restoration project will be a major focus for the Society in coming months and will require much in the way of community resources. Once completed it will be available to house memorablilia and artifacts as well as the site of future Society meetings. Click on this Depot link for additional information on the project. |
At its core, Summit is an old rail town that in many ways time and industry have passed by. But things do not have to remain that way -- Summit's rail corridor has been targeted for a facelift in the form of a million dollar GoZone Downtown Revitalization Grant. What does that have to do with history or the Society? A lot -- for one thing members of the Society were instrumental in assisting the Town in landing the grant. For another thing, harmonizing new development with robust preservation efforts is good for our economy and our culture. Take a look at our impressive Projects pages and you will see the results of our efforts to date. |
The Summit Historical Society was formed to take a leadership role and to be proactive in the preservation movement in this community. There is simply too much at stake, in the form of irreplaceable buildings and historical assets, that will be permanently erased from our landscape if we fail in this effort. If you would like to join in this effort or get more information about how you could benefit, please contact us through the webmail link or click on the Support & Resources link. | |
