Drake Cottage Work: Update
Thanks to a 1:1 matching grant from the Massachusetts Cultural Facilities Fund and donors to match the funding, Drake Cottage – our Administrative Offices – is getting a spruce up. We have replaced a rotted door with a new, made on Nantucket door; made repairs and replacements to rotted trim and gutters; and now we are in the final phase – painting!
The building will be changed in color from white to a more soft grey – the same that Mitchell House is. We think it will blend a bit better with the streetscape and maybe hide a bit of the mildew the building gets from living on that side of the street and sharing the landscape with all those lovely – and bird “happy maker” – cedar trees. Keep your eyes peeled on those cedars in the winter – cedar waxwings love them!
Thank you to MCFF and our matching donors for making this much needed work happen!
