(L-R): Museum consultant Charles Miller; museum directors Kelly Bennett, Maureen Powers, and Jeff Rubin; and Pinole Assistant City Manager Hector De La Rosa (not pictured) met with Interactive Resources architect Charlie Duncan (in blue sweater) in February 2019 to go over the initial drawings for the remodeling of the interior of the historic Faria House that will make the 1880s farmhouse functional for the Pinole History Museum.
Among the additions to the structure will be an interior elevator to conform to Americans With Disabilities (ADA) requirements so museum visitors will able to easily go back and forth between the first and second floor exhibit rooms. There will be three exhibit rooms on each floor, and a gift shop on the first floor. One downstairs room — The Learning Center — will be used for lectures, video presentations, and weekend programs for children and students.
