Well, seems there's been some drama in the neighborhood. Take a look at this story about Sewall Commons:FROM DECAY GROUND TO PLAYGROUND (AND BACK AGAIN)
That was a very nice piece, I thought.
Funny, as the docent for the Powder House, I spent time telling people about the important Powder Alarm in September 1774, that involved our little storage building, and the run-up to the Revolutionary War. It was actually a rather quiet incident which poked the Tories, but it had a long tail and real impact on what was to come next.
Next time we send a rider. Maybe when things warm up, around April.
