“Old Streets of Greenwood” Museum (Renovation – 26 July 2022)



The Greenwood community celebrated the improved Branstiter “Old Streets of Greenwood” Museum with a ribbon-cutting July 26. The museum’s exterior was completely redone in spring 2020, with a new roof, new siding and doors, and five “windows” put in, depicting scenes from of old Greenwood businesses. Although the renovations were completed in 2020, COVID delayed the museum reopening and ribbon cutting. Don Branstiter started the museum in 1991 after collecting antiques and old machines for many years. Marilyn (Branstiter) Rastall, Don’s sister, was present at the ceremony. “This would make my brother very, very proud, to see all the things that have been done,” she said. “I’m so happy that the community has embraced it.” Shown are (l-r) museum committee members, Jeff Block, Steve Hemmersbach and Kay Landini; Clark County economic Development Corporation (CCEDC) president Pete Kaz, museum committee chairperson, Pat Lindner, CCEDC member Dave Williams, museum committee member Diane Wildish, Rastall and Greenwood Mayor Dave Hansen.
