Walking Tour: What Makes a Neighborhood? – Tremont Avenue - TOUR IS FULL, names are being taken for the waitlist.

  • Tremont Avenue Westfield, NJ, 07090 United States (map)

On Saturday, June 27, 2020 from 9:00 – 11:00 am, the sixth in a very popular series of architectural walking tours will take place on Tremont Avenue.  Scale, proportions, and materiality will be discussed. 

     The intent of this tour is to honor the beautiful streetscapes and the diverse architectural styles that remain centuries later.  Gregory Blasi, R.A. local architect and principal of Vincentsen & Blasi Architects and Westfield Historical Society President, will lead the tour and answer questions.

     The tour will accommodate 20 attendees, but additional tours will be scheduled if interest warrants.  It will take place rain or shine. Participants are encouraged to wear face masks, bring hand sanitizer and practice appropriate social distancing. The tour meet-up location will be provided to registrants. Please RSVP by email to westfieldhistoricalsociety@gmail.com; or call (908)654-1794.

      A donation to the Westfield Historical Society would be appreciated: $5 for members, and $10 for non-members, and will be collected at the start of the tour.  Membership information will be available.

     The Westfield Historical Society celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2018. Since 1968, the 501(c)(3) non-profit Westfield Historical Society has worked to preserve, interpret and encourage interest in history, Westfield, and its residents through educational efforts and community outreach programs.
