This program explores the architecture surrounding the Longmeadow Green. The houses and other buildings around the Green represent a wide range of architectural styles, including Colonial, Federal, Greek Revival, Gothic, Italianate, Queen Anne, and Colonial Revival. The program will examine how these styles evolved, the typical exterior design elements for each one, and how these are represented on buildings here in Longmeadow. It will also consider how these buildings were often modified over the years to reflect changing tastes and styles. By examining these architectural traditions, the program highlights how each generation in Longmeadow’s history has left its own distinctive legacy in the community.
We will meet at 6:30…
