Montrose Park Historic House Tour
October 15, 2016 @ 11:00 am - 4:00 pm
On Saturday, October 15, the Montrose Park Historic District Association (MPHDA) will hold its historic house tour, Autumn in Montrose Park.
MPHDA has selected six beautiful historic homes that will be open from 11:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. Homes on the tour include a circa 1900 Tudor, an 1870 Italianate-style and a 1915 stucco Arts & Crafts. President Maureen Gammon says, “We are very excited that our neighbors will open their unique homes. Our home owners have incorporated the historic architecture with modern conveniences in vintage wrappings to accommodate today’s lifestyles.”
The historic homes offer visitors an “armchair trip” back in time, when they can “see” how early residents lived–after the Civil War, nearly fifty years before women could vote, when electricity was a new-fangled idea and just before the telephone was invented.
