On Oct. 31, 2015 --The Lowell Walk to View the Area that Will be Changed (and not all is completed)

 On October 31, 2015, a large group of interested individuals met at the Lowell Historical National Park Visitor Center to begin a tour led by Dick Howe. The purpose was to explain the major changes in the coming year to Lowell. The above photo is from Middlesex St. almost to the Lord Overpass.

This photo and the below are of the Lord Overpass, which would eventually be made flat.

We walked down to South Common.

Walked down this left side and I took the two pictures below.

The group on Dutton St. is about to walk along the Western Canal.

The Textile Museum is on the right side.

A view behind the Textile Museum, which was still open at that time.

After the tour ended, I visited the James McNeil Whistler house, which was taken from the 2nd floor. I then continued on with my own tour.

Dutton Street. Ymittos Candle Company was still open.
