Museum Commission Approves Design
Rogers Historical Museum Commissioners have approved designs from architect firm DeLeon and Primmer for the Hailey Ford building, which will house exhibit galleries, a research library and staff offices after the Museum's expansion. The Hailey Ford building, with its rounded corners and streamline design, was an iconic building in downtown Rogers when it was built in 1948. DeLeon and Primmer's proposal includes returning the historic portion of the building to its original façade. Design work performed by DeLeon and Primmer is made possible by a Design Excellence grant awarded to the Museum's expansion project by the Walton Family Foundation.
