No.2 City Hall
No. 18 Proprietary House
No. 26 Kearny Cottage 
No. 41 St. Peter's Church
No. 65 George Inness House
The Inness House was demolished sometime in the early 90's
So if you live in the area, why not take a drive on a fall Sunday afternoon,
and take the tour of your historic hometown.
For anyone who may be coming back for a class reunion,
your class reunion committee might want to sponsor a mini-tour.
If you want to see the inside of the Kearny Cottage, St. Peter's Church, or

the Proprietary House, I would suggest calling ahead and see if they can
accommodate your group on your chosen day.
Enjoy coming home!
