SUMMARY:Preservation Tour
DESCRIPTION:Discover preservation in progress this summer at Brucemore\, one of Iowa’s most iconic historic sites. Executive Director David Janssen will lead you on a special look at the on-going preservation work that helps ensure the property is around for the next 100 years. The 26-acre estate features six historic structures that create a complex puzzle of aging stone\, wood\, metal\, slate\, glass\, and brick. The tour will include access to buildings not usually open to the public as well as a look at Phase II of the Mansion Envelope Restoration Project. Each tour will offer a different perspective as various parts of the project are completed throughout the summer. \n  \nAbout the Mansion Envelope Restoration Project \nIn 2018\, Brucemore kicked off a three-phase Mansion Envelope Restoration Project. This $4 million project is aimed at stabilizing the structure by fixing the causes of deterioration rather than only symptoms. Ultimately\, this work will protect the irreplaceable works of art\, furnishings\, and documents that tell the story of Brucemore. Phase I of the Mansion Envelope Restoration project to stabilize and restore the enclosed Service Porch was completed in April 2019.  Phases II and III will focus on the roof\, north\, south\, east\, and west facades of the mansion\, specifically restoring the roof cresting and slate\, window glass and wood\, exterior trim\, doors\, light fixtures\, and exterior brick walls. \n DATES: \n\nAugust 20\, 5:30 p.m.\nSeptember 22\, 3:30 p.m.  \nOctober 10\, 5:30 p.m.  (canceled)\n\nADMISSION   \n\n$15.00 per adult \n$10.00 per student\nBrucemore members receive a $5 discount per ticket\, quantity based on level – please “sign-in” using the link in the upper right corner to apply member discounts or call (319) 362-7375.\n\n  \nIMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR YOUR VISIT \n\nArrival: We ask that you arrive via our main entrance\, 2160 Linden Drive SE.
