What makes a project like this worth it?
For Den Cralle, it comes down to the people.
As Monument’s window story wraps up, the focus shifts from the process to the individuals behind it. Every restored pane of 100-year-old glass reflects the time, care and experience of craftsmen like Wayne Cain — people who understand what’s at stake in preserving something original.
Restoring a 1920s home like this doesn’t rely on quick fixes. It depends on steady hands, patience and a willingness to do the work the right way.
It isn’t fast. It isn’t flashy. But it holds up.
And in the end that’s what stays with you. The result — and the people behind it.
