Join us as we tour Migeon Avenue, which has been described over the years as the “grandest street in Torrington”. We’ll explore it’s rich past, including the many families that called Migeon Avenue home, from factory workers, small business owners and wealthy industrialists; the assorted architectural styles and unique features that grace both elaborate mansions and modest worker housing and also hear the stories of those who lived and worked here, all of which will bring the street to life and illustrate how this impressive avenue evolved with Torrington’s development during the 1800’s and early 1900’s.

We’ll meet at the intersection of Pearl and Migeon promptly at 10 am and walk to Pulaski Street and return to our starting point, covering both sides of the street. Our focus is primarily in the 1800’s to early 1900’s due to time constraints. Please note that the sidewalk is uneven in some places, so please wear appropriate footwear..

Tickets for members are $5, for non-members $10. Tickets available through Eventbrite.

See you soon!
