Good Morning Gloucester 
I do miss that old building. I remember when the spent all day shooting a scene for the tv show Route 66 there. George Maharishi and Marty Milner carrying suitcases up and down those stairs a zillion times only to have that scene cut from the final movie. The new house looks lovely and I’m sure it will be more comfortable.

They did do a nice job on the new place. It is larger, but not overwhelming, and it doesn’t look out of place or like it doesn’t belong there. Before long though, people will forget, or never have known, what stood there before it and the stories and history it held.

George Maharis as Buz Murdock. 1960 to 1964.

This is the former Joan Kerry Studio. Perviously, it was the first location of The Rudder restaurant. I have a photo of it in 1929, when it may have been a summer cottage.

I grew up there and don’t remember the sign. Was it on the Sibley house and book store?

I rented the upstairs apartment in the early 60’s- at that time there was an “English Tea Room” operated by Mr. Cross…on a weekly basis, “Tourists” would walk up the stairs and just walk right into the apartment….thinking it was also open to the public. Great memories that summer living on Rocky Neck…
