Item Description
Congress Street Walking Tour for 10,
Led by Ken Scoville
Every town has a “street of dreams” where shopping, dining, and entertainment flourished and then floundered. Congress Street is now being reborn thanks to past preservation efforts to save the Fox and Rialto Theatres, the Congress Hotel, and early masonry commercial buildings from demolition. As you proceed east on Congress, each block reflects those ongoing changes in downtown commercial development during the 19th and 20th centuries. Discover the struggle between west and east merchants to attract customers with saloons and gambling, later with restaurants, theaters, and hotels to capture the tourist and event John Dillinger. The tour finishes at the end of Congress Street at the restored train station.
This tour is led by Ken Scoville one of the most knowledgeable historians of local lore.
Date: You will schedule your tour directly with Ken.
