Arsenal Re-Dedicated by Town Officials

Culminating an extensive restoration project, the Town of Huntington dedicated the newly-restored Arsenal May 6.

Marking the completion of the $179,705 project to replaced a deteriorated roof, transform the back half of the building to Colonial-era condition and upgrade access to the building, the upgrades exposed the original frame timbers, ceiling beams, ceiling boards, and floor boards, according to a town press release.           

The restoration project was funded by the Town and by a $49,300 historic preservation grant from the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation.

The Arsenal will be open, by appointment, for tours conducted by Huntington Militia volunteers, according to town officials.
