BOPARC putting a new roof on the Wiles Hill Community Center
MORGANTOWN — The Board of Parks and Recreation Commissioners recently purchased a new lid for the Wiles Hill Community Center. During its most recent regular meeting, the board approved a contract with Sutter Roofing for $155,500 to replace the old building's roof. BOPARC Executive Director Melissa Wiles said she was pleased to see the bids come in under the project's original $200,000 budget. She hopes it stays that way. 'You never know with an old building. Keep your fingers crossed for no change orders,' she said. Sutter Roofing was one of five bidders to make an offer on the job. The same company is currently replacing the roof of the Morgantown Ice Arena as part of a larger renovation of that facility. Built in 1910, the Fourth Ward School – more commonly referred to as the Wiles Hill School – served its educational mission for 89 years. In 1939, it received an addition thanks to FDR's New Deal-era Public Works Administration. Shortly after consolidation forced the school's closure in 1999, the 14,000 square-foot building was sold to BOPARC. It's served as a community/senior center, artist haven, dance studio, fitness space, concert hall, cafe and all-around gathering spot since 2005 or so. The building was added to the National Registry of Historic Places in 2004.
