Good Morning Joey, I will be moving to Gloucester the end of this month, and thought you would be the perfect person to reach out to, as I start the process of building a community and learning all things Gloucester! I learned about Good Morning Gloucester after having my picture taken by Manny on the footbridge at Good Harbor Beach this past summer. We struck up a conversation and that is when I learned about your website, which I just subscribed to today. I have been coming to Gloucester for years and love the area so much that I recently sold my condo in the Back Bay in Boston to relocate to Gloucester. I am incredibly active and adore all things outdoors especially, of course, the beach and the amazing beauty of Cape Ann. I hike, bike, play tennis and am a gym rat and will be joining the new YMCA on Schoolhouse Road once it opens. I’m looking to connect with the Gloucester community and find groups that share these interests and also just immerse myself in all things Gloucester. Once I becomes settled after my move, I would definitely be interested in volunteer and community organizations to join in Gloucester. I also have an interest in joining the Bass Rocks Beach Club, but I’m coming up short on information online, and was wondering if you could point me in the right direction. Well that’s it for now, Joey. I look forward to hearing back from you and perhaps meeting one of these days! Here’s looking forward to warmer weather…..on the dock. Regards,
Ellen Alessi

When it’s time to look for new windows, one of the first questions we’ll ask you is: are you looking for New Construction or Replacement Windows? And often times that question can be confusing. Sam & John are here to break down the differences, and help find out if Replacement Windows are right for your project.
We’ve been hard at work behind the scenes, and we are beyond excited to finally be able to tell you about it. This past year, we had the opportunity to work with Jonathan Knight, of New Kids on the Block and local interior designer Kristina Crestin on the new HGTV show Farmhouse Fixer.
Their job was to restore farmhouses to their former glory, for the families that live in them, and to keep their charm and character in the neighborhood. It’s usually easier to tear down these homes than to…
