2024 Recipients

125 E. Gilman St., Madison

Many of you may recognize this wonderful property from our Mansion Hill East walking tour! The Daniel Campbell House at 125 E. Gilman St. (1883-84) has been awarded $8,000 for a project to repair the wrap around front porch that aims to preserve the historical integrity and enhance the beauty of this beloved structure.

The project will include the excavation of the foundation wall and four porch pylons, followed by a thorough refurbishment of the masonry. It will also involve the refurbishment of two exterior railing structures and the resetting of masonry supporting columns, reinforcing the overall stability of the porch.

Grace Episcopal Church

Grace Episcopal Church was awarded $2,000 for their project to replace the slate roof system on the nave, which is showing signs of deterioration. This project consists of repairs, rehabilitation, and restoration of roofing and masonry elements of the facade, including related structural repairs.

Construction of the nave was completed in 1858. Grace Episcopal Church, which is Madison Landmark #45 and on the State and National Register of Historic Places, intends to require a level of quality and craftsmanship equal to or greater than those of the original building.
