July 2007 Newsletter Stone House

Come into Mount Carroll on Route 78 from the North and you’ll see what’s left of the house that was the first built within Mount Carroll City limits. Situated over an old spring, this house has rapidly fallen apart over the years.
On July 3, 2007, the CDC received a gracious donation allowing us to purchase this structure. Unfortunately, the cost to renovate would be an enormous expense. Our initial plans are to enhance the area by maintaining the foundation as well as improve both landscape and architecture, providing a safer and more pleasant area.
