Wardenclyffe Preservation in Trouble

Concerns over preservation of Wardenclyffe have increased.

The preservation of Nikola Tesla's Wardenclyffe landmark could be in danger after a series of events, according to a report in Newsday (subscription required).

Tesla filmmaker Joe Sikorski said that the recent $4-million donation to buy and restore the lab by a St. Louis supporter is being held for the time being after the investor became ill, but not fallen through.

Along with that, the Shoreham nonprofit group Tesla Science Center at Wardenclyff is concerned that a proposed zoning change to business that would result in the Route 25A corridor study could bring buyers focused more on business and less on preserving the center.
