On Tuesday April 20th, 2021, the historic bell of Prevost Hall in Greenville, NY was rescued by Gould Erectors and Riggers Inc. of Selkirk, NY as part of ongoing building renovation work. Using a crane, Gould removed the bell from its tower so the historic artifact could be preserved from further damage. Weighing in at close to 2,000lbs, the 42-inch brass bell was cast in 1874 by Meneely & Kimberly Founders of Troy, NY.

Prevost Hall is a former church and registered historic site placed on both the Greene County Historical Register and on the National Historic Register of Historic Places. It serves as a community gathering space and is currently undergoing renovations.

“Community Partners of Greenville is grateful to Gould Erectors and Riggers Inc. of Selkirk, NY for their outstanding generosity in helping our community with this urgent need,” says William Bardel, president of Community Partners. “The careful removal of this 147-year-old bell was a challenging task due to the high location and tight access with this bell tower. Gould’s staff and their professionalism made the work seem effortless. Removing this bell allows for building renovations to move forward and the bell will become a viewable outdoor feature for the local community.”

Community Partners of Greenville is a non-profit organization of volunteers committed to the protection, preservation and development of natural and historic resources of the Greenville area. It serves Freehold, Gayhead, Grapeville, Greenville, Greenville Center, Norton Hill, South Westerlo, and Surprise, NY.
