Welcome to Preserving New Castle's Heritage!

Welcome to the New Castle Historical Society's new historic preservation blog! I'll be using this blog to keep you up-to-date with preservation activities, issues, and projects happening in and around Historic New Castle, Delaware.

The idea for a blog developed last year as the New Castle Historical Society (NCHS) planned some major preservation projects on our historic properties - the Amstel House & the Dutch House. The posts on our original blog (on www.newcastlehistory.org) slowed down due to some delays in getting our projects started. Now that we are underway, I will use this blog to keep you informed about progress on our projects, our decision making process, treatment options and choices that we make. I hope you will find information that is useful in your own preservation projects.
