Caroline’s Old Town Hall is set for major restoration in 2026 after the town selected Bero Architects to lead the project, according to town officials.
The 1868 Romanesque Revival building, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, will undergo upgrades funded in part by a $375,000 matching grant. Town Supervisor Mark Witmer said the firm’s past preservation work and budget-friendly proposal made them the ideal choice. Planning is underway, with construction expected to follow next year.
The renovation will revive lost architectural features, improve energy efficiency, and restore historical elements like original entryways, while preserving newer windows and woodwork. Officials say the updates will honor the building’s rich heritage and meet modern needs.
