Love Where You Live

Last summer the Greenwich Historical Society invited residents to enter the organization’s This Place Matters! photo contest.

The annual contest is designed to encourage conservation on a local level and asks shutterbugs of all ages to submit photos of their favorite places around town.

Second Place: Jay Wilson, Second Congregational Church

The winning entries were announced at a Founder’s Day celebration on July 18. The event also served as the unveiling of the newly renovated Feake-Ferris House. The Old Greenwich home, which is believed to be the oldest home in town and one of the oldest in the country, was painstakingly restored by the Greenwich Point Conservancy over several years.

We can think of no better place to announce This Place Matters! winners other than a place that matters so very much.

Third Place: Mike Stempien, Calf Island and Shell Island

Entries are on display at the Historical Society’s brand-new campus at 47 Strickland Road, Cos Cob.
