The Historical Society of Newburgh Bay and the Highlands preserves the history of the Greater Newburgh Area by promoting an appreciation of the region’s unique attributes and protecting its architectural, cultural and historical value.
Preserve…Promote…Protect
“History Needs a Home”
A Capital Campaign to Save
the Captain David Crawford House
In November 2007, the Historical Society of Newburgh Bay and the Highlands was awarded $135,000 grant from the New York State Environmental Protection Fund. Funds from the grant will pay for much needed capital improvements of the Crawford House, but the grant stipulates that we must match those funds. We have hired a preservation architect who has identified the areas of greatest need. The roof, chimneys and gutters must be repaired and replaced to stave off serious water damage. We are ready to move forward, but WE NEED YOUR HELP TO PRESERVE CRAWFORD HOUSE! Make a tax deductible donation today!
