HCHS Walking Tour - Historic Flemington
Ever wonder what downtown Flemington looked like around 1900 when horse-drawn carriages rolled down an unpaved Main Street? Join us for the first-ever Asher Stryker Walking Tour on Saturday, May 9 at 11 a.m., led by lifelong resident and Hunterdon County Historical Society Trustee President Peter Goodell. The walking tour will feature: • Stryker’s rare 1900s photographs presented alongside modern views of Main and Mine streets. • Fascinating tales of vanished or altered buildings -- and the town’s movers and shakers who once lived in them. • How the downtown has evolved in the past 120-plus years. The tour will begin in front of the Doric House Museum at 114 Main Street in Flemington. The tour is free for HCHS members, and costs $10 for nonmembers. To reserve your spot, email hunterdonhistoryadm@gmail.com. Rain date is Sunday, May 17 at 11 a.m.
