Groundbreaking Ceremony
October 19, 2022 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
On Wednesday, October 19 at 11 am, the National Women’s Hall of Fame will break ground for the next stage of work at its home at the 1844 Seneca Knitting Mill, 1 Canal Street, Seneca Falls.
This stage of renovation will expand usable space, which is currently limited to the first floor of the four-story building. The scope of work will include rehabilitating the existing spiral staircase, adding a main staircase, and building a new elevator shaft with a glass connector. Substantial work will also take place on the second floor, which will become space dedicated to telling the stories of the Hall’s 302 Inductees. The historic and iconic smokestack adjacent to the building will also be preserved and restored.
Join for brief remarks, the ceremonial groundbreaking, light refreshments, and a chance to view the Hall’s introductory exhibits.
The National Women’s Hall of Fame is hosting this event in partnership with LeChase Construction Services.
