Honoring Historic Preservation

Interested to see how The Porter-Phelps-Huntington House has been preserved?

In honor of Preservation Month, we’ve shared a few preservation-related stories to help you learn about  projects that help to keep this historic house in good repair so that it remains a bastion for public knowledge and learning. One of our more notable recent projects was the restoration of the front portico columns surrounding the main entrance to the house. Added to the house during the expansion in 1799, this Federal-style portico has been a focal point for generations of family members and now members of the public for more than 200 years.

We now have the ability to receive online donations, so you can quickly and easily help us maintain this wonderful historic site for future generations!
