Architectural and Historical Perspectives

Please gather at 10:15 at Cape Ann Museum park on Pleasant St.
Rescheduled from Sunday, September 13. Advance registration required
Architectural historian Wendy Frontiero and architects Rob Chandler and Kirk Noyes will lead a walking tour of Gloucester's "Acropolis" that focuses on its high quality and unusually varied buildings.
We will concentrate on the core properties - City Hall, Sawyer Free Library, the U.S. Post Office, Central Grammar School, St. Ann's Church, and Cape Ann Museum.
We will also touch on selected residential and commercial buildings along Pleasant Street to give context and provide material for discussion.
