Strand House Restoration
Corryn Darling was born and raised in Kingston, NY and always fostered a love for old buildings. When the opportunity arose to buy 17-19 Abeel Street presented itself in 2017, she knew it would be quite the undertaking. There was a large hole in the roof that caused extensive water damage and the entire structure needed to be re-built, starting with the roof. It took a lot of ingenuity and patience to save and restore the historical building and many challenges were presented along the way.
Darling has worked in the construction industry for over a decade and her construction company, Sustainable Structures, completed the work. Even though the project took a lot of blood, sweat and tears, it was nice to work with my Dad, uncles and cousins again in the field.
