Brides and grooms planning on having their wedding ceremony and/or reception at the History Center will be pleased to know that enhancements are coming. This gem in heart of downtown has received $1.2 million in funding from the city of Fort Wayne for interior and exterior improvements.
The History Center said the city allocated $1.2 million in Community Economic Development Income Tax (CEDIT) funds to the nonprofit to replace its heating, air-conditioning and ventilation system and stabilize and restore its exterior sandstone veneer. This allocation represents the largest single donation in the organization’s 87-year history, the History Center said in a statement.
