Lost but not forgotten

The Pillars

Last week Oswego lost the historic Pillars house to a devastating fire. Named for the 36 pillars found in and around the home, it was constructed in 1903 for Charles Woolley. The Pillars is a landmark on South Main Street and will be missed by many. Our hearts go out to the family who was affected by the fire.

Thank you to the Oswego Fire Protection District and other agencies that assisted at the scene.?
