We believe that preservation of this historic landmark is of strategic importance for the village, the town, and Mohawk Valley.
It’s development and re-use will be a benefit to the community, and ultimately provide a commercial stimulus to the area.
The loss of this property through neglect and decay would be tragic and represent irretrievable break of an important link to our past.
In order to preserve and restore this important landmark, a group of committed volunteers have formed the West Hill School Committee to take action now, plan for the future, and to recognize the past.
Historic Fort Plain, Inc. is an independent non-profit organization dedicated to preserving historic buildings in the village of Fort Plain and surrounding areas. Founded in 2011, its first project has been the preservation and restoration of the Universalist Church.
We support the mission of Friends of Fort Plain and their work to restore 47 Main
