Listen to Kathleen Kimball Wurster's story and find out.

This program is part of the Newburgh Beacon Audio Adventure Tour. This sign is located at the Kimball Foundry/ Habitat for Humanity at 125 Washington Street in Newburgh.

For over 125 years the Kimball family owned and operated businesses from the building at 125 Washington Street in Newburgh. In the late 1970s it was sold and in 2006 Habitat for Humanity of Greater Newburgh bought the Kimball building. Beautifully restored by local volunteers and through generous contributions, the building now houses Habitat's offices and Restore, and today still proudly bears the Kimball name.
