A Tale of Two Eras at the Otis House
Advertisement
Uncover stories of the last surviving mansion in Bowdoin Square through two distinct chapters of its history.
First, delve into the lives of the Otis family members. Built in 1796, the house reflects the wealthy couple and their growing family in the Federal era. Then, travel into the mid-19th century, when the house transformed into a genteel boarding house. The Williams sisters managed and operated a shared residence for middle-class individuals and families.
Members $15; Nonmember $20.
