About the Event
Join Preservation Worcester docent Ana Santos Restivo for a walking tour through the historic Elm Park neighborhood, Worcester’s fourth and largest local historic district. The tour will trace the development of the land once belonging to the Lincoln family, focusing on Levi Lincoln, Jr., Worcester’s first mayor, Massachusetts’ 13th governor, U.S. Congressman, and all-around exemplary Son of Worcester. We will step back in time to envision what the Lincoln Tract of land looked like as the family sold off land parcels for development, including Elm Park. The tour will showcase excellent examples of popular architectural styles paired with brief historical narratives of those who inhabited them. The tour will take at least one hour.
