Pardee-Morris House - A Morris Cove Historic Treasure
It was a wonderful day for the Pardee-Morris House in Morris Cove New Haven CT. The public open house which was scheduled for September 27th was rained out and rescheduled for today.
Since 2000 the Pardee-Morris House has been closed to the public due to lack of funds but restoration work has been ongoing for the past few months so it could be opened again on a limited basis.
Due to a some prior commitments already made for today, I was unable to get to the open house until about 3:45 giving me only a few minutes to get inside to take some photos of the interior. There is still quite a bit of work to be done to fully restore this historic treasure but what a sense of history you could feel walking through the areas of the Pardee-Morris House which were available to be seen.
