Bill Russell, Asylum Hill Congregational Church
Valerio Giadone, Project Architect
Dulcie Giadone, Chair, Housing Committee, Asylum Hill Neighborhood Association
Jennifer Cassidy, Chair, Asylum Hill Neighborhood Association
Tony Mein, Chair, Education Committee, Asylum Hill Neighborhood Association
Ted Carroll, Moderator, Asylum Hill Congregational Church & Executive Director, Leadership Greater Hartford

They were ably guided in this endeavor by Mike Stockman and Jeff Giddings, who can be seen at different points in the foreground and the side of the action, respectively.
Following the ceremony, a group of volunteers from The Hartford pitched in to frame the first floor of the house, and by the end of the day we had the beginnings of something resembling a home!
