Springdale, one of Stamford’s most affordable residential neighborhoods today, took generations to evolve. Join preservationist Wes Haynes for a one-hour walking tour of historic buildings that mark Springdale’s journey from industrial village and streetcar suburb to bedroom community, with a focus on how its residential architecture evolved from the 1870s to the mid-twentieth century.

Meet in front of the library at 1 p.m. Please bring water and wear comfortable walking shoes.
