Rebuilding Ohio's History Bond fuels state historical society growth
Ohio voters approved a 290 million bond last spring to boost historic preservation. Of the funds, 12 million was allocated to the Ohio Historical Society, with 10 million for a new complex beside the Ohio State Fair Grounds in Columbus. The plan includes a headquarters, museum, library, and an archives building, plus a pioneer village. Remaining funds restore 25 landmarks such as Glendower in Lebanon and the Harrison tomb in North Bend. The program aims to strengthen Ohio tourist attractions and state heritage work amid ongoing funding challenges.
