READING, Pa. – Reading’s famous Pagoda could be opening its doors just in time for spring.
The Pagoda Foundation’s president says the hope is to open the landmark in late April.
City Council President Donna Reed says the landmark may open incrementally, room by room.
The Pagoda has not been open for several years. Since then, it’s had major work on all fronts.
Workers have removed the scaffolding and are once again lighting the Pagoda. Officials say this offers a fresh start for the city.
“It hasn’t been open for quite some time. Just to have it reopened and what that looks like, it’s a promise for the City of Reading and that’s something to look forward to,” said Joey Miranda with the Reading Pagoda Foundation.
Miranda asks residents to be patient and says the target date for the grand reopening is April 21st.
