Neighborhood walk in Torrington, Part 4

Down the block is Trinity Episcopal. It has an enchanting courtyard and lots of interesting details.

It's impossible to miss the historic Warner Theater on Main Street. It was recently restored, and the sign is wonderfully retro.

Around the corner is St. Francis of Assisi Catholic. We can hear the kids at the nearby school when they have recess.

The St. Francis statue is weird for the fact that the little bird has decided to land on St. Francis's thigh, instead of on say, his arm or hand? It's still a nice statue.

Most of the leaves are now gone, but yesterday was so beautiful I had to bring my camera to work. I've been meaning to get some pictures of the historic buildings around my office, so here they are.

Center Congregational is the closest to my office. The belltower chimes the hour, and plays hymns at noon and 5 PM. I love the turquoise doors!
