This walking tour looks at changes in Gloucester’s Harbor Village as it advanced from the home of a few to the workplace of many during the late 18th to early 20th centuries. A mix of structures past and present, heroes, art, and waterfront activity all inform the picture of the diverse and vibrant community that emerged along the shore of Le Beauport, the beautiful port.

Stroll with a CAM Docent for about 1 1/2 hours in downtown Gloucester.

Where to Meet?
