Join us for a walking tour of South Portland, once a thriving immigrant community. The tour will begin in Lair Hill at the original Neighborhood House (now an active Waldorf School) then proceed through what was once the heart of the multiethnic neighborhood. Along the way, you’ll learn about the people and places that contributed to the rich history of Portland’s Jewish community, including razed and relocated synagogues.
As you walk, you’ll hear about the city’s first urban renewal projects of the early 1960s, which irreparably changed the physical, social and cultural landscape of the neighborhood.
Limited accessibility. More information will be updated shortly.
