PHOTO: A View From the Top of Abbot Hall

With the Abbot Hall bell tower making local headlines, we thought we'd publish this photo we took from one of the highest points in Marblehead last year.

The view of Marblehead from the top of the Abbot Hall bell tower.

The awesome Abbot Hall bell tower photo attached to this post was taken last year while we were putting together this video about the Abbot Hall Crankers.

The shot offers a birds-eye view of the neighborhood immediately surrounding the building and seemed appropriate considering bell tower repairs will appear on the next Town Warrant. 

Repairing Marblehead's trademark Abbot Hall clock tower will cost $2.1 million and it could take most of 2014 to repair the extensive damage caused by weather over the last 137 years. Click Here for our full story.

No longer a million dollar view, but a 2.1 million dollar view.

Just not via an override.

Call the selectmen today! 781-631-0000

Tell them fix Abbot hall without an override

We already pay over 70 million dollars a year in Taxes. They can borrow 2 million easily and pay it back with the taxes we already give them.

We don't owe this to ourselves, but to generations yet unborn
