The Alabama Historical Commission funds accessibility enhancements to the Wallace House

The Alabama Historical Society, the state historic preservation office, has awarded the Wallace Center $52,500 for accessibility improvements to the Wallace House. An outdoor lift will be installed so that visitors with mobility problems can access the first floor of the house. When this improvement is completed, any remaining funds will be put toward a heating and air conditioning system for the house. This grant addresses two key barriers to the use of the house, especially in the summer and winter. We are grateful to the Alabama Historical Commission and the state of Alabama for this significant contribution to open the Wallace House up to all.
