“Let’s Take the High Road” on our fall walking tour! High Street, that is, and its neighboring streets. We’ll gather at Christ Episcopal Church on Saturday, October 28 at 1:30 p.m. Join us as our docents tell tales of High Street history, a former quarry and copper mine, the first athletic field, lost houses on Bloomfield Avenue, the revival of Central School, the Brower-Dodd house at 28 High Street, and the three iterations of 85 Park Avenue. The tour will conclude with refreshments and a tour of Central School. Families welcome. Rain date: October 29.
