The goal was to have our contracted repairs completed by the first of January so the apprentice plasterers could begin in early January.  Apprentices began prep work for plastering, repairing lathe board, and removing old plaster between the lathes on Jan 6th. We will continue to work with the Preservation Resource Center on this project over the coming months to provide support and additional repairs as needed.
