I mentioned yesterday that I had driven along Beacon Street on three occasions before finding peak color at Brown’s Island. Well, one of those drives took place on October 7th and included a stop along Lee Street where it meets Prospect Alley to find this composition of Abbot Hall.
While the tree on the left was just past peak with signs of burnt leaves, it formed a nice frame with the brick facade of a home along Lee Street with which to capture a different view of Abbot Hall. The late morning sun helped light up all three elements in the final frame to create a nice view on this crisp autumn day in Marblehead.

It is a lovely view, Eyal! The Abbott Hall spire looks brand new! Fantastic clarity and color. ???
My first view of Abbot Hall renovations up close. Beautiful.
Lovely! Great picture of Abbot Hall with her new look!
Beautiful shot. One clarification, as the current owner of that brick house: it’s not façade but layers of brick, as we discovered during renovation. At the street level, at least a foot deep and up at the top, two to three layers of bricks. We’re told the brick was ballast to be replaced by salt cod and other resources on the return trip.
