Inaugurated in 2020, MCHS’s architectural study collection preserves unique and significant features from historic structures around Morris County before they are lost due to demolition or significant alteration. Upon completion of the restoration of Acorn Hall’s carriage house, the collection will be permanently displayed on its second floor, allowing for the study of our local architectural history.
