About the event: The Ludlow Historic Society is hosting a Christmas Walk spotlighting historic Ludlow houses on December 14th from 4:00-8:00 pm. Proceeds will benefit the restoration of the Ludlow Railyard Storehouse, future home of the Ludlow Museum. This is the first Ludlow Christmas tour in 10 years. Eight houses will be featured. Most of these houses date from after the arrival of the Railroad to Ludlow in the 1870s--reflecting the majority of Ludlow's built environment. The tour combines houses of long-time Ludlow residents, many of them "serial rehabbers" who have long advocated for the preservation of Ludlow's historic buildings and are "handy" at doing their own restoration work. Other homeowners represent Ludlow's newer families. Over the last decade, many younger residents have moved to Ludlow, often with their children, attracted by the town's size, convenience, schools, and historic character. These younger homeowners are often in arts-related fields, including painting, graphics, architecture, interior design, and contracting. Ludlow has experienced an influx of residents that urbanists call "the creative class," who are interested in the character, craft, and authenticity of historic buildings. Their homes reflect their artistic tastes.
