A symbol for the township: New Hamburg trade board eyeing waterwheel upgrade

NEW HAMBURG A New Hamburg landmark may soon be getting a facelift. The old wooden waterwheel at William Scott Park could be replaced with a steel one as the Board of Trade eyes an upgrade. First built by the New Hamburg Trade Board in 1990, the waterwheel has started showing its age recently and even stopped rotating last year. It s around 30 years old, so it is past its life expectancy, said Joe Figliomeni, chair of the Board of Trade s Waterwheel Committee. The board is proposing a design similar to the original, but the new steel one would generate power. It s not going to generate a lot, but if we could get the lights down in the park area lit, that would be great, Figliomeni said.
