Abstract
Restoration of the Villard-Reid House was complicated by the short time period for the completion of the work, the presence of new construction at the same site, and utilization of the elegant interiors for continuous public use. Lighting of some of the stained glass windows and stabilization of a plaster ceiling offered particular challenges. See AATA 18-1106.
