I thought this was some cheerful news to read and very interesting how they fix monuments and what goes into repair.

Looks good but I can't view it unless I disable my ad blocker which I'm not going to do (probably couldn't figure out how to re-install it even if I was willing; I have a tech for that sort of thing). It looks familiar so I might have seen it but not sure; what's the date ?

Nice article! The work they have done is very good and quite hard to detect in the finished pieces

I've seen it now (thanks !) and it's a good restoration story. I'd sure love to meet those folks.

Dr. Joe Hannibal from the Cleveland Museum of Natural History has done quite a bit of research on stones used in archetecture. I even have a photo in one of his publications. He helped with the restoration of the Soldiers and Sailors Monument here in downtown Cleveland. -Not many people realize you can go inside..

Got a soldiers and sailors monument here in Hamilton Ohio.

Wow ! Their results are stunning. I've always been fascinated with stonework; carving and walls.
Have been lucky enough to see many historical works. Thanks for the cheerful post...
