The Becker Center
The Becker Center is situated on 3.5 acres of land donated to the Roseland Historical Society by H. Eugene Becker. This building was always intended to serve the community and will be renovated soon to house a museum and media/community center. The space has already seen a great deal of change thanks to many dedicated volunteers who have helped clean out the space on multiple occasions.
