First Freedom Center Offices

Since the First Freedom Center's move to 1321 E. Main Street in September of 2006, space has allowed for the construction of exhibits and larger groups of visitors for meetings and educational events.  Renovations of the historic properties at the corner of 14th and E. Main Streets began in November 2004 with the shoring up of half a block of long-vacant and dilapidated buildings, followed by months of careful restoration. We inhabit the ground-level storefronts which face Main Street. The rest of the property is apartments, which are managed by Main Street Realty. Please call if you’d like a tour of our offices and exhibit space.
