BREAKING: The Windsor Experience has just announced a transformative community gift—a brand-new rotunda for Windsor Mall, set to celebrate local heritage and craftsmanship. This exciting project, voted on by community members earlier this year, is now moving forward with full funding for materials sourced from local timbers.
Master carpenter Jex Pablo will lead the construction, generously providing his expertise free of charge. Sponsored by The King’s Foundation, Pablo specializes in traditional timber framing, ensuring that the new rotunda will be built using authentic heritage construction methods.
The design of the rotunda will mirror the existing structure, emphasizing Windsor’s rich history. Local heritage experts are collaborating closely with The Windsor Experience to maintain the town’s historic charm. The beloved trellis and wisteria will remain intact, preserving the unique atmosphere of the Mall.
AJ Dundas, Co-President of The Windsor Experience, remarked, “With the recent upgrades to Windsor Mall, we felt it was time for a design that better reflects Windsor’s heritage character, something that stands as a symbol of pride and craftsmanship.”
The community is invited to contribute further donations to enhance the project, specifically for roofing details or decorative elements. Community members can explore the rotunda’s design, learn about Jex Pablo’s work, or even sign up to assist with construction by visiting kieselhaus.com.
The group has already reached out to the Mayor, formally offering this significant structure as a community gift, complete with all necessary engineering certifications. Once completed, the rotunda will be delivered to Windsor for installation over a single weekend, marking an important milestone for the town.
“The Windsor Experience is proud to give back to the community in a way that will last for generations,” Dundas added. “Together, we’re leaving something beautiful and everlasting for Windsor.”
This development is set to enrich the Windsor community, creating a lasting legacy that celebrates local heritage. Stay tuned for updates as the project unfolds, and be part of this inspiring journey to enhance Windsor Mall!
