This historic symbol invoking images of bustling families traveling in past times required a complete roofing renovation ... a task requiring the skill of an expert and knowledgeable Slater. |
 
Removing, marking and properly storing the slate for replacement is a painstaking process. Since hip, valley and eave pieces were cut-to-fit during the initial installation; these pieces have to be marked as to their exact position as they are removed from each section. |
Each portion of the roof is then stored separately to wait for it’s recycling. Note: When slate is stored, it is placed on end and then stacked. |
 |  | McCreesh & Son replaced all of the metal works with copper. This included not only flashings and valleys but also the Yankee gutter that now spans all of the eave lengths. |
| The West Trenton Train Station is now restored to its former grandeur ... at the end of the day you can almost hear the whistle!
