Check out all the beautiful flowerboxes lining Main Street. Check out the architecture and character.

This is no vanilla Disney version of what a Main street is supposed to look like, this is the real deal.

This is Gloucester! So next time someone rips on it, tell them to get their head out of their ass and head downtown to our fantastic restaurants, browse the art galleries and shops, sip some great coffee at our community coffee shops and then talk. I’m convinced the ones that rip on it don’t even check out all the great stuff and people that make up our incredible Downtown, otherwise they would be singing it’s praises too.

Up With Gloucester!
