Open House and Architect’s Presentation
Sunday Aug 6, 2pm: Architect’s presentation, by Marilyn Kaplan of Preservation Architecture, about the project to repair, conserve, and restore the Historic Robert Jenkins House. Free and open to the public. The house will open for tours, 1-4pm, with the presentation at 2pm.
Unfortunately, the building is not presently handicap-accessible.
The Robert Jenkins House, located at 113 Warren Street on a particularly beautiful block of the city near the waterfront, is owned by the Hendrick Hudson Chapter, National Society Daughters of the American Revolution. The chapter’s restoration project focuses on the house’s slate roof, upper masonry, and aging infrastructure. Funding assistance is from a Save America’s Treasures grant awarded by the National Park Service, Department of the Interior.
