Join us every second Saturday of the month at 1pm to learn more about area and industrial history, engineering, archeology, water access and more from experts in a variety of fields. On September 13th, former Senior Analyst for the CTPS and current President of the Board of Directors at the Shirley-Eustis House, Bill Kuttner, will be presenting Concrete in Boston: Evolution and Revolution.


Unreinforced cement has been around since ancient Rome. Reinforced concrete, however, dates only from the turn of the previous century. Like so many important inventions its birthplace was Boston. Given its usefulness and durability, its history, importance, and evolution can be illustrated by structures in our community that we see every day.


All events are upstairs in the Overlook Gallery. The presentations are free and open to everyone, including walk-in visitors, space permitting. Please help us monitor capacity by reserving your FREE tickets in advance.
