Great thread!! :tup: Can't wait to see Springfield!! Question: Those old industrial buildings they're renovating, What did they used to be??
|
Chicopee looks nice. It doesn't look anything like the coastal Massachusetts that I'm used to.

Great tour!
|
Well this was a treat. I drove near Chicopee, but was running out of time, so I skipped it in favor of Holyoke. I love cities like this. The old factories, blue collar neighborhoods, and ethnic churches remind me of the Scranton area (where my folks grew up, and we use to visit when I was a youngin'). And the City Hall tower is wild. Thanks so much for the tour stepper.

And if they needed to house the looms for textile manufacturing, I guess that's why these were so immense. On the second picture below, I zoomed into the original and the plaque says the building was a cotton mill built in the 1850s. Quote:
