Old Roundhouse Park

The town commissioned a local artist to build a performing arts stage replicating a railroad roundhouse, placed at the historic trailhead of the Mountain Goat Trail. This installation honored local industrial heritage while energizing Old Roundhouse Park as a communal space. The project supported civic pride and regional tourism. Although still in progress, it catalyzed broader engagement with outdoor recreation and the arts.
