Order Personalized Paver Bricks

We are nearing the end of the refurbishment of the Hawthorne Station. The move 75 feet back from the corner was funded by our recent projects. To complete the job and see the exterior of the building returned to its former glory, we need to do more fundraising.

By purchasing pavers you will be enhancing the future of a building that has seen so much of the past and has many stories to tell generations to come. The paver bricks will be part of the walking path that leads to the station. Click here to order
