DAHS has worked hard through the years to tell the stories of this historic building and of this area’s founding families. Our vision is to restore Gordon Hall to its original grandeur and open it to the community as a venue for events, exhibits, and community activities. The $3.5 million full restoration will restore the building to its original historic splendor and include structural restoration as well as all new heating, cooling, power, and universal access via a lift. </span><br /><br /><font color="#3f3f3f">In 2025 we will do structural improvements in the basement at Gordon Hall. The work will be partly funded by a wonderful grant from the Michigan State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) in coordination with Washtenaw County. The rest of the funding has come from our amazing donors and supporters. If you donated last year, this will be how we put your money to work.  THANK YOU!!

The original service was installed in 1950 and included 5 separate meters, one for each of the 4 apartments and one for the house. Gordon Hall now has an electrical supply capable of running our building once its restoration is complete, with planned updates that include an energy-efficient heating and cooling system and a lift for universal access.
