ROYCROFT POWERHOUSE

The building was severely damaged by fire in the winter of 1997. The Roycroft Campus Corporation (RCC) purchased the building in October 2005 and are in the process of restoring it to the way it looked when originally built, over the next 2-3 years. Initial plans for the building include: classroom and flexible meeting/event space, a gift shop, and public restrooms.
