The 19th Ward Community Association’s thirty-second House Tour will take place on Saturday, October 6 from noon to 5 pm. This year’s Tour will feature seven fabulous houses, including the home of Dr. Bill and Susan Morehouse, St. Monica’s School, and the Pioneer Cemetery. As usual, the tour will highlight diverse architectural styles and decors. Gracious homeowners include singles, families and extended families, all eager to share their love of their homes and the neighborhood. Tickets cost $10 with a $2/ticket discount for Association members purchasing tickets at the Association office. Tickets are also available (at full price) at Hunt’s Hardware, The Creator’s Hands, Parkleigh, and at all Wegman’s locations (Wegman’s sells vouchers which must be redeemed for a ticket book at the Office on or before the tour).
Discussions with tour-goers in prior years reveals several reasons people take our tour – curiosity about the “old neighborhood” where they or their parents grew up, prospective homeowners interested in learning what it is like to live in the 19th Ward, and searching for decorating/renovating ideas.
