Exploring Louisville's Candy Store of Historic Architecture
Wednesday, May 17th, 6 pm, St. Matthews Library (in upstairs meeting room), 3940 Grandview Ave: presented by David Ames;
Architectural historian and historic preservationist David Ames relocated to Louisville a year ago after his retirement as a professor of urban affairs and public policy at the University of Delaware. He also directed the Center for Historic Architecture and Design there. In fact, Louisville's great variety of historic architecture is one of the things that attracted him to retire here. Since arriving he has been exploring the city and trying to learn what is here and how it represents the history of the city.
His talk, "Exploring Louisville's Candy Store of Historic Architecture" will share with you what he has seen with his "fresh" eyes in a way that will allow the audience to go out and explore for themselves.
Free and Open to the Public.
