Kingston Canal House Gets A Maintenance Makeover
MARCH 22, 2023
The Kingston Canal House (a former bridge & lock house) has had a much needed “maintenance makeover.” With funding from from the Canal Society of New Jersey and in partnership with the Kingston Historical Society, the side entrance door was replaced in kind, a new gutter was installed and the entire water damaged facade received several much needed fresh coats of paint. The park extends its thanks and gratitude to Canal Society of NJ, the Kingston Historical Society and Chris Riley who did a fantastic job on the repairs and “facelift” for this historic canal house.
It is partly with the help and support of our partner organizations that much needed projects such as this can be addressed. We are grateful for their willingness to help fund such projects and for their commitment to support the park’s mission of resource stewardship. If you also support that mission, then by all means consider becoming an active member of one of our many affiliated groups; get off the bench, get involved and become a D&R Canal State Park stewardship champion! New members and volunteers are ALWAYS needed and welcome!
