The Gold Coast – Hamburg Historic District Association proudly invites you for a day to remember in the Gold Coast in Davenport, IA. If you would like to participate or have some of your friends, co-workers and/or employees enjoy a holiday in our historic neighborhood, we’d love to host you. The Gold Coast is Davenport’s First Neighborhood, settled by German Immigrants in the 1850’s. Renovation is continuing today to bring all the homes back to their former glory. The Gold Coast – Hamburg Historic District Association presents:
“A Holiday High Tea”
Saturday, December 8, 2012
A Day at one of three Elegant Homes in the Gold Coast
• 703 Ripley, Henry Struck Home, Queen Anne style in free classic mode.
• 624 Western Ave., the Captain Mays 1864 vernacular home.
• 911 W. 7th St., the Italianate Hans Stoltenberg Home.
The Struck and the Mays homes have been “tea homes” that you may have previously enjoyed, and the Stoltenberg home was on the 2011 Gold Coast Home Tour. Each house will be seating about 16 guests and you’ll have a chance to see the wonderful holiday decorations on the first floor of the home you are attending. This is a fundraising event of the GC-HHDA to further education for people of all ages to our historic district. A portion of the ticket price is also tax-deductible.
Entertainment will be provided by members of the Barley House Band
