The Friends have been given a donation of $35,000 from the Apostle Islands Historical Preservation Conservancy, to contribute to the reconstruction of the grand front porch on the Pike Building as exterior renovation begins this year!

Bringing back the porch requires architectural considerations, construction and engineering expertise and materials consideration among other things.

The Friends of The R.D. Pike Building are delighted to announce a magnificent boost to our efforts at restoring this iconic building. We've recently received a grant from Enbridge that is being used for two projects.
