An illustrated talk by architectural historian Wes Haynes

Celebrating 250 years of progression and evolution, this captivating presentation tells the story of Stamford through architectural form, from aqueducts to bridges, factories to lighthouses, commercial properties, and stately residential homes.

“Independence sparked Stamford’s 250 year transformation from an isolated rural colony into today’s vibrant city, says Wes Haynes. “Today this story hides in plain sight in the places where we live, work and play.” In celebration of the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, Haynes has planned a virtual tour of the existing buildings, structures, and monuments, and the stories of the people and forces - immigration, industries, and technological innovations - that shaped our city over that time.
