Preservation Effort In Patchogue

With the cooperation of Mr. Michael Romeo, owner of Industrial Coverage Corporation, the GPHS is in the process of restoring the historic Zoeller mural which once hung in the Union Savings Bank building on South Ocean Avenue. Once restoration is complete, the mural will be displayed in the Patchogue Medford Library. Anyone wishing to make a contribution towards this restoration, please contact the GPHS.

 

 

Our Carnegie Library Matters!

The National Trust for Historic Preservation has designated May as Preservation Month. This year's theme is "This Place Matters." The GPHS believes our Carnegie Library Matters. We invite the community to share your memories of your times spent at the old library on Lake Street. To see a related article, click here...
