Berky Hall stone repurposed by Swiss Community Historical Society
Six limestone capstones--36 inches by 6 feet long and weighing 1,509-1,700 pounds each--were salvaged from Bluffton University's Berky Hall for use as steps at the new Swiss Community Historical Society Heritage Center. The stone was adapted by John Kohli, mason, with assistance by Jeff Althaus, Wes Buettner, Mike Krugh, Cory Wilkins, and Seth Bixel.
