This grant is funding the rehabilitation of the west elevation windows. The Depot has undergone rehabilitation efforts since 2014 to repurpose the historic building into the Catalyst Campus for Technology and Innovation. Subsequent phases of work to address the remaining windows and doors are expected as part of the ongoing efforts to rehabilitate the depot and mitigate further deterioration to this immense historical resource.
