History is Alive ~

2017 - March -- day and night shots of Re-purposed Historic Building ..
If you look in the windows near the Tower, blinds have been installed ..
Around the side, two photos of the old water pump -
Day and night ..
With no lights on in the parking lot, it might as well have been a mountain road ..
Pitch black ..
Only light from the camera ..
Landscaping being done ..
Can just imagine a sunset view from these apartments ..
Almost done ..

The Holt Family was well-known in the textile industry
The Arts Center and a current bank once were homes built by Edwin Holt for his daughters.

An album -- ReHab of Oneida Cotton Mills -- takes you through digital documentation starting in 2013.

The tower has been painted .. watched from down the street as it was done !
Rapunzel can let her hair down, now !
