This 1830’s barn was moved from New York and re-purposed as a community center at a community outside Dallas, Texas. I marvel when I see the sign that says the community was founded in “2012”. And now it is “2014.” This New York barn has indeed gotten a new lease on life and is starting all over again in...Texas.
This restoration is stunning from the stained concrete floors to the contemporary light fixtures and furnishings to the date a farm boy wrote on a beam on a lazy, hot summer day in “June 1902”. Do you think he could ever have imagined that his handiwork would someday be read by passersby in Texas?
