The stage is set!  Join two Canton historians (George Comeau and James Roache) on a public tour of this heritage redevelopment site. Centrally located in the town, the Paul Revere Heritage Site is a 40-acre allotment along the Neponset River. The former industrial site is currently being adapted for contemporary reuse, and shall build townhouses, condos, apartments, a dog park, trails, and a park with historic features. The future 9-acre park contains the historic Revere & Son copper-rolling mill and the Joseph Warren Revere Barn. The complex was founded by Paul Revere and proved to be the birthplace of the nation’s copper industry. Current redevelopment concepts being explored call for the mill to be used as a heritage museum and cultural center, and the barn to be transformed into a destination restaurant.

Tours are limited to 20 spaces at a time, and advance space must be reserved (free.)
Saturday, October 8th at 9:00 am and 10:00 am
Sunday, October 16th at 1:00 pm, 2:00 pm, and 3:00pm
