The four honorees have made
an indelible impact on the Lewes

Mayor James L. Ford II1:
Community Service Award
After a decade of leadership
as mayor and more than 10 other
years as a member of city coun-
cil, Ford has shepherded Lewes
through dramatic improvements
and proj-
ects. Among
the notable
achievements
during his
tenure are the
completion of
Lewes Canal-
James L. Ford Ill front Park, the
Second Street
Revitalization Project and the
celebration of Lewes's 375th
anniversary in 2006. In addi-
tion to his position as mayor,
Ford's business as a preservation
contractor has earned him the
wide admiration of homeowners
across Lewes and has given him
a unique sense of the importance
of preservation in the First Town
in the First State.

decided to sell the first Bethel
Church at the corner of Mulberry
and Third streets in 2012, they
wanted to make sure they found
a buyer who would respect the
historic fabric and nature of the
structure. Did they ever. The first
building in Delaware specifically
built as a Methodist church was
purchased by Amy and Craig
Felker, who did the minimal
repairs needed to prepare the
building to be an integral part
of Lewes's architectural heritage
for years to come. Bishop Francis
Asbury noted in 1790, "We have a
chapel built at Lewistown." That
chapel is still here, more than 220
years later, and poised to inspire
for even longer.
Brenda B. Jones: Renovation
Award for 121 East Third St.

a tear-down shotgun bungalow

packing crate found in the attic
was repurposed as a door; the
crate has a previous owner's
name on it with the house ad-
dress and reinforces the sense of
place Lewes embodies.
Hal & Holly Brundage:
Restoration Award for 325
Market St.
Built around 1904 and en-
larged around 1955, 325 Market
St. has been restored to its for-
mer glory while adapting to the
conveniences of today. Heart
pine flooring was salvaged, as
were existing staircases and rail-
ings. While the chimney bricks
needed to be replaced, a salvaged
mantel from Philadelphia rein-
forces Lewes' close connections
to the city on the Delaware River.
The house at 325 Market St. wins the
Restoration Award.

The front porch's decorative
corner brackets were retained,
blending into the fabric of one
of Lewes's loveliest residential
streets as they have for over
a century. Modern taste and
historic character blend in this
Market Street gem.
"Done correctly, historic pres-
ervation isn't necessarily about
the preservation of one building,
but rather a community and its
context, and it should leadto
thriving local business and a
sustainable way of life," Society
Executive Director Mike DiPaolo
noted. "The society feels we
need to honor those who have
acted so faithfully as stewards of
our heritage."
