Ty Gwaith Crefft yn Remsen - "The House of Craftsmanship in Remsen"
Ambitious plans are afoot in to develop a mixed use neighborhood in upstate New York which "will interpret the history of Remsen and the legacy of Welsh immigration to the village and the area."Amongst other features ( see "Conceptual Plan" HERE ) it is intended that a genealogy, folklore and historical Interpretation Center will be established that will work in partnership with the Museum of Welsh Life in St. Fagan's, Wales.For more on these exciting plans click HERE .
Diolch Brett...both would be great, YouTube vids too. Perhaps a blog post?
Pictures of the project, new railroad sign, or both? I can make a trek to Remsen in the near future. There are a couple of YouTube videos about Remsen I can post.
Looks like things are still moving along, witness this post dated August 4th 2011. Any chance of some pics Brett?
