Description
The Rome Area Heritage Foundation (RAHF) will host its fourth annual #ThisPlaceMatters Historic Home Tour on Sunday, May 21, 1 – 4 p.m. The theme of the 2023 fundraiser is “Views of the Clock,” and will feature six homes in the Between the Rivers Historic District in locations immediately surrounding the City Clocktower. The event will feature a variety of residences, each with their own unique character, charm and history, affording attendees the rare opportunity to explore historic properties and their surrounding grounds. A variety of architecture will be showcased, from shingle style and Tudor revival to craftsman residences, a 1940s brick bungalow, as well as two completely-renovated condominium units. The ticketed event also includes entry into the City Clocktower, which will be open for official tours. Proceeds from the tour will benefit RAHF’s local preservation initiatives, including restoration efforts of the William S. Davies Homeless Shelters’ Ruth and Naomi House in North Rome.
