The restoration project will restore the exterior of Hunterfly Road Houses, significant in NYC's African American history, enhancing the Weeksville Heritage Center's contributions to cultural education.
Dr. Raymond Codrington emphasized the importance of the project, stating it ensures the Hunterfly Road Houses will be preserved for future generations, embodying freedom and self-determination.
The restoration includes major upgrades, such as a climate-controlled cellar and enhanced outdoor lighting, ultimately improving the visitor experience at the Weeksville Heritage Center.
As part of preserving the distinct history of the Hunterfly Road Houses, this $3.9 million project represents a commitment to maintaining a key part of America's African American heritage.
