NORTHWOOD, Iowa - A 120 year-old building has been given a new lease on life.
The former Northwood Lumberyard has been transformed into 'The Timbers', an event center set to host weddings, receptions, anniversaries and other joyous celebrations.
After two contractors purchased the building about five years ago, they planned to tear it down. However, after discovering that the building was in too good of shape to take down, they turned to the non-profit organization TUNE to not only buy the property, but redevelop it into an events center. Inside and around the building, many facets of the lumberyard were kept intact, including the wooden supports and the dancefloor, and the tin on the roof.
