Vermont Senator Patrick Leahy helped us formally open the renovated Bentley Hall following Green Mountain College’s 177th commencement ceremony in 2014. The Queen Anne-Colonial Revival house, built in 1900 and historically known as the C. W. Humphrey House, underwent substantive renovations, and now serves as a community center for the town of Poultney and the college. The project won a 2014 Preservation Trust of Vermont award for creative re-purposing of a historic building.
