Stabilization at Coggswell-Taylor

We are very excited to see the needed stabilization underway at the Coggswell-Taylor Cabins in Virginia City, Montana. Significant water infiltration has threatened these critical pieces of Montana history and the construction team has carefully worked to protect and maintain historic fabric while accurately replicating components which have been damaged beyond repair or salvage.
