Village Hall

The Village of Greedale is very proud of their heritage as a Green Community. The 75th Anniversary of Greendale will be celebrated in 2013 and preparations are already underway.

The village, a planned community, was designed to resemble eastern communities. Note the similarity of the Village Hall to Colonial American designs.
