The Thousand Islands Bridge Authority

Thirty years later, a partially restored Boldt Castle sits in the middle of the St. Lawrence River as an anchor for the regional tourism industry that now sustains the Thousand Island area. It's the key attraction.
Last year (2000) Boldt Castle drew a record 230,000 visitors during its six-month season, and that number has been steadily climbing each year.

So far the first two floors of the castle have been renovated, complete with inlaid wooden floors and ornate plaster walls. In the summer of 2000, workers completed the grand marble staircase, on the main floor, and this past June (2001) the stained-glass dome skylight was added, helping to finish a 100-year-old dream.

Because of the ongoing renovations, there is almost always something new for visitors to see each time they visit Boldt Castle and beautiful Heart Island.


Future plans include continuing restoration and restabilization of the island's buildings, especially Alster Tower, which shall soon see the bowling alley restored. The elevator in the Castle is in the plans for the near future, as well as ongoing research to determine original, intended placements of crated, unused original architectural elements found abandoned on the property.
