Seaholm completes first part of rehabilitation
Tuesday, September 27, 2022 by Elizabeth Pagano
At long last, phase one of the Seaholm water intake facility renovation is complete. For now, that means limited, guided access to the building (led by parks department and Trail Conservancy guides). Soon, the long-vacant building will see public programming such as fitness classes, volunteer events and historical tours. Planning the rehab of the intake facility began in 2016, and the completed phase included restoration of windows, new lighting and roofing. Find more information about the rehabilitation here.
