Ann and Terry of the Alton Area Landmarks Association discuss the 54th annual Historic Home Tour, featuring 10 Alton sites, including historic houses, Main Street United Methodist Church, McPike Mansion and the Brute-Gertler House. They describe the tour as a chance to explore local architecture and learn about the buildings’ histories, while encouraging people to restore and preserve Alton’s historic properties.
The interview covers ticket prices and pickup at Haskell Park, the tour’s noon-to-5 p.m. schedule, and an armchair tour planned at Hayner Genealogy Library. The guests also discuss a window-restoration workshop at the Brute-Gertler House and the association’s work documenting house histories and promoting preservation.
