Love Architecture? Local History? Check Out the 35th Annual Historic Elgin House Tour
The Gifford Park Association will hold its 35th Annual Historic Elgin House Tour on Saturday, Sept. 10, and Sunday, Sept. 11, 2016.
Each year, the House Tour features a different historic neighborhood of Elgin. This year, the tour comes back to where it all began: The Historic District in the Gifford Park neighborhood, where seven spectacular houses have been selected for your viewing enjoyment.
The Annual Historic Elgin House Tour is an educational event that offers something for everyone. There’s architecture, history, home remodeling, interior decorating, gardening and more. The interior tours of the homes are guided and interpreted. The houses can be toured in any order. If you participate, wear comfortable shoes and allow yourself the full day to see all of the homes.
