Mid-Hudson News reports that New York is giving the Olana State Historic Site $1 million for a new visitor entry and orientation facility. It will be called the Frederic Church Center, and Assemblymember Didi Barrett is claiming credit. “Frederic Church is a singular historic figure who made his home here in our beautiful Hudson Valley and whose impact continues to be felt in the worlds of art, landscape design, architecture, agriculture, environmental conservation and beyond,” said Barrett. Construction is not anticipated to start until 2023, after the project goes through normal approval procedures. Read more about this story at Mid-Hudson News.
