Merchantile Home to Reprint Book on Easton by West Ward Neighbor Tim Hare







When people ask me about the West Ward, of course I tell everyone right off the bat that I love the historic architecture--all our neighborhood's beautiful old houses and building. I also tell people how rich the West Ward is, not only in its diversity of cultures, but with multi-talented professionals and artists. Timothy George Hare, R.A., M.A., Architect, is one such example. A recently retired architect and preservationist, Tim is also a painter and writer, and is getting ready to reprint his third book, Easton Inkscapes, originally commissioned by the City of Easton in 1989, which captures the unique character of antique architecture and streetscapes of Easton, is being presented in a newly gorgeous way by Mercantile Home in Easton.

The publication will be launched in November - the 20th anniversary of the first edition.
