Close to $1 million was spent on Bestor Plaza renovations. Approximately $450,000 was spent on the Fountain, which was primarily covered by two large donations from two families. The pavers were covered entirely by restricted philanthropy from two other families. The cost of the design and construction of the paver project was $493,900. The Institution spent operating capital funds to repaint and repair exterior building elements and to repair the smaller fountain in front of the post office. Repair and painting to the masonry columns at the Colonnade was also completed at a cost of $32,400.
