Hi Joey, I took this pic Saturday morning at Wingaersheek Beach. Janice Brown from Dune Circle is in the photo. I posted on FB. She doesn’t have a FB page but a bunch of her Gloucester friends saw it & suggested I send it to you anticipating you’d post it on your blog. I am a Scituate MA resident.

American realist painter Edward Hopper is known to have painted in Gloucester on five separate occasions during the summer months in the years 1912, 1923, 1924, 1926 and 1928. His earliest visit in 1912 was made in the company of fellow artist Leon Kroll. During his second visit to Cape Ann in 1923, Hopper courted the young artist Josephine Nivison. He also began working in watercolor, capturing the local landscape and architecture in loosely rendered, light filled paintings. In 1924, Hopper and Nivison who were newly married returned to Gloucester on an extended honeymoon and continued to explore the area by foot and streetcar. During his final two visits to the area, in 1926 and 1928, Hopper produced some of his finest paintings. This special walking tour will explore the neighborhood surrounding the Museum, which includes many of the Gloucester houses immortalized by Hopper’s paintings.

Gloucester Streets From Anne Power Parsons

Joey,
I know you mentioned some of the Gloucester streets that were eliminated or renamed over the years in Gloucester.
I’ve been researching the Power family and some of their relatives who lived in the Fort in the 1860’s.
I found that on some birth certificates the home address was listed as Marginal Way. I knew they always lived as close to the wharves as possible, particularly Fort Wharf.  In later years addresses were: 77 Commercial St., 59 Fort Square and 46 Fort Square.
In the 1870-71 Gloucester City Directory it lists street names.
Beach Street–Commercial to the beach near the Pavillion.
Commercial–From Front to Fort (in 1869 directory, it says to Fort Wharf.)
Marginal Way –From Commercial south of Old Fort.
Neptune–From Commercial to the Beach.
So my ancestors didn’t move, but the streets changed names.
