(TLGV). The fiscal year started with a celebratory turn as the Grand Marshal in the region’s Holiday Dazzle Light Parade, in recognition of the National Heritage Corridor’s 20th Anniversary. The year ended with another champagne cork-popping piece of news – our federal legislation was amended to formally change our name to The Last Green Valley National Heritage Corridor, and our federal funding was reauthorized until 2021. While this legislation doesn’t guarantee any dollar amount in a given year, it reaffirms that The Last Green Valley National Heritage Corridor is eligible and worthy of continued federal investment. Green by day TLGV is grateful for the support of Senator Richard Blumenthal, who introduced the legislation in the Senate, and Congressman Joseph and dark by Courtney, who introduced the legislation in the House. TLGV would also like to thank Senators Elizabeth Warren and Christopher Murphy, and Congressmen Richard Neal and James McGovern, for co-sponsoring this legislation and for their continued support of our National Heritage Corridor. night, The Last 2014 was also a year of staff transitions.

    NEIGHBORHOOD OVERVIEWS (Sources: The following text is largely quoted from Leslie Donovan and Kim Withers Brengle, “A Preservation Plan for the City of Gloucester, Massachusetts,” 1990. Supplemental information was added from the Gloucester Development Team’s Land Marks; Architecture and Preservation in Gloucester, 1979; an unpublished manuscript, “Artists’ Communities in Gloucester, 1750-1948,” by Wendy Frontiero, 1998; and comments from the Gloucester Archives Committee.) CENTRAL GLOUCESTER Central Gloucester is roughly bounded by the Inner Harbor, the Annisquam River, and Route 128. This commercial and civic center of the City of Gloucester, located west of the inner harbor, is the nucleus of the Central Gloucester neighborhood and the City. The central business district runs along Main and Rogers Streets and is characterized by two- to four-story masonry structures. Immediately to the west is the civic center, which is composed of the City’s public buildings, by far the largest group of substantial buildings in Gloucester. The greatest concentration of industrial buildings is also found in Central Gloucester, located along the waterfront, near the commercial areas, and along Maplewood Avenue. Central Gloucester is extremely densely developed compared to the rest of Gloucester. Residential buildings are typically single-family and multi-family structures of wood-frame construction. A fishing colony established by the Dorchester Company at Stage Fort lasted only from 1623- 1626. It was not until the late 1630s that Cape Ann attracted a large enough number of permanent settlers to warrant incorporation as a town in 1642 under the Massachusetts Bay Colony. The name of the new town may have come from the recent birth of a new Duke of Gloucester.
