Top Attractions in Beverly

John Hale House

The John Hale House, also known as the Rev. John Hale Farm, is a historic Colonial house located at 39 Hale Street, Beverly, Massachusetts. The house is now operated as a nonprofit museum by the Beverly Historical Society, with period furnishings and a room containing witchcraft-related artifacts. This house was built in 1694, possibly with structural members from an earlier parsonage, by Beverly’s first minister, Rev. John Hale . Hale is now best remembered for playing a significant part in the infamous Salem witch trials in 1692. He had been at the forefront of the prosecutions but underwent a change of heart when his second wife Sarah Noyes Hale was accused of witchcraft. She was not convicted, and shortly thereafter the trials concluded. After his wifes death in 1697, Rev. Hale wrote a book entitled A Modest Inquiry into the Nature of Witchcraft, condemning his colleagues who played leading roles in the trials. Rev. Hale lived in this house until his death on May 15, 1700. Generations of descendants succeeded him in the house, until in 1937 they finally sold it to the Beverly Historical Society Museum. Over the years the house was much altered from its original state. Additions include a 1745 gambrel-roofed ell facing Hale Street that now contains the main entrance. Descendents of Reverend Hale still remain in Beverly.

John Balch House

The John Balch House, located at 448 Cabot Street, Beverly, Massachusetts, is one of the oldest wood-frame houses in the United States. It is now operated as one of the historic house museums of the Beverly Historical Society, and open from June through October. According to the Beverly Historical Society, the house was built from timbers harvested in 1678/1679. "... the entire northern end of the Balch House was most likely constructed during 1679."

Long Hill

Long Hill is a 114-acre estate in Beverly, Massachusetts and is managed by the Trustees of Reservations. From 1916 to 1979, the estate was the summer home of Ellery Sedgwick, author and editor of The Atlantic Monthly. The estate contains a Federal style home with formal gardens, 2 miles of hiking trails, woodland, meadows and an apple orchard. The 5 acres of cultivated gardens and 100 acres of woodland grounds are open to the public daily. There are two miles of trails.

Bakers Island Light

Bakers Island Light is a historic lighthouse on Bakers Island in Salem, Massachusetts. The station was originally established in 1791, with a daymark. This was replaced in 1798 by two lights atop a keeper's house, one at each end. After storm damage in 1815, an octagonal stone tower was constructed. The current round stone tower was added in 1820. The 1820 tower was taller, leading to the names "Ma" and "Pa". The two remained in service until 1926, when the older, shorter tower was removed. The light was added to the National Register of Historic Places as Baker's Island Light Station in 1976.

Hospital Point Range Front Light

Hospital Point Range Front Light is a historic lighthouse at the end of Bayview Avenue in Beverly, Massachusetts. It forms the front half of a range which guides vessels toward Salem Harbor. The tower was added to the National Register of Historic Places as Hospital Point Light Station on September 28, 1987. Established in 1871, the beacon marks the deep water channel to Beverly, Salem and Marblehead Two bronze plaques contain historical information about the site. One plaque honors Beverly men who manned a fort at the site during the Revolutionary War, and the second describes the lighthouse and a smallpox hospital that was previously located on the site. The lighthouse was first lit in 1872 and was automated in 1947. The Fresnel lens was replaced in 1976, and an acrylic optic was installed in 1981. The square pyramidal light tower is 45 feet tall, made of white painted brick and is topped with a 10-sided lantern. There are five sash windows in the tower, with the doorway facing the keeper's house. A small brick oil house stands nearby. The keeper's house is an example of Queen Anne style architecture, although its historic detailing are obscured by an major addition to the building in 1968. Hospital Point Light is owned and operated as a navigation aid by the United States Coast Guard. The light is paired with a second light installed in the steeple of Beverly's First Baptist Church in 1927. Vessels are able to use the two lights to align themselves with the middle of the channel, avoiding the rocky shores. Tours are offered to the public each August for Beverly Homecoming celebrations and include 40 winding stairs and a ladder to the top of the light.

Odd Fellows' Hall

The Odd Fellows' Hall in Beverly, Massachusetts occupies a prominent location on Cabot Street opposite city hall in Beverly Center. It is a 3.5 story High Gothic Revival building constructed in 1893 to a design by local architect J. Foster Ober. Its exterior is clad in brick with trim of granite and brownstone. Its roof is a cross gable style, steep roof with polychrome bands of slate tiles. The central portion of the roof is a deck surrounded by a wrought iron railing and is topped by a cupola and weathervane. One of its notable tenants was President William Howard Taft, who had offices in the building during summer residencies in Beverly. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978, and included in the Beverly Center Business District in 1984.

United Shoe Machinery Corporation Clubhouse

The United Shoe Machinery Corporation Clubhouse is a historic clubhouse at 134 McKay Street in Beverly, Massachusetts. The building is now known as Beverly Golf and Tennis Clubhouse. The English Revival building was designed by Boston architect Henry Bailey Alden, and built in 1910 as a gift from the senior management of the United Shoe Machinery Corporation to its local employees. The club, which originally occupied 300 acres , became a significant social center in Beverly, providing a place for all manner of social and recreational activities. The property was sold to a developer in 1971, who sold the clubhouse and 168 acres to the city of Beverly. The clubhouse was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.

Beverly Historical Society

"It is the mission of the Society to preserve, interpret, and disseminate Beverly's regional artistic, cultural, social, and transportation history." The Beverly Historical Society, located in Beverly, Massachusetts, was founded in 1891, and its headquarters is the 1781 John Cabot House, which has two floors of museum exhibits. The collections have grown to more than 750,000 objects, including manuscripts, books, photographs, maps, decorative arts, and other artifacts related to the history of Beverly and the North Shore. The Society acquired two 17th century properties in the 1930s, the John Balch House and the John Hale House, which it opens to the public for guided tours. Throughout its history, the Society has collected, preserved and interpreted Beverly history, offering programs to the general public, as well as to teachers and students. Volunteers are critically important to the vitality and success of the Beverly Historical Society; contributed hours in 2008 exceeded 4800. In order to meet the needs of a diverse and changing constituency, the Society is focused on digitizing our collections and offering more services online to increase access to the collections, as well as increasing the amount of free programming offered each year. The Society's collections include manuscripts, books, photographs, maps, ephemera, decorative arts, and other artifacts related to the history of Beverly and the North Shore of Massachusetts.

Cabot Street Cinema Theatre

The Cabot Street Cinema Theatre is located at 286 Cabot Street in Beverly, Massachusetts. It offered live performances of the Le Grand David Spectacular Magic Company from February 1977 through May 2012. During that time the resident company also showed feature films "worth seeing more than once." On May 15, 2013, the owners/Le Grand David company announced that the Cabot is for sale. For more than ninety years the Cabot Street Cinema Theatre has been an important part of the Boston's North Shore community. Harris and Glover Ware, two brothers and former vaudeville musicians from Marblehead, Massachusetts, built the Cabot eight years after the construction of their first Beverly theater, the Larcom Theatre. The Cabot was originally known as the Ware Theatre, when it opened in 1920 and was described as having “the most impressive auditorium of its size east of New York.” Erected with ballyhoo and great expense in 1920, it was immediately Beverly’s grandest playhouse. Large enough to accommodate any kind of entertainment, from silent pictures to opera, the Cabot was also grand enough—with its frescoes, filigrees, golden dome, and full balcony—to rival big-city show palaces. When it opened, "announcements for the gala premier of the theatre boasted of a "$50,000 Austin Pipe Organ." In today’s dollars, this cost was the equivalent of well over half a million dollars." The Cabot's architects were Funk and Wilcox, who had already made a name for themselves with the Athenaeum and the Strand Theatre (Dorchester, Massachusetts). Back then, movie palaces included fully equipped stages because film showings were often preceded by live acts—vaudeville. They were also built with orchestra pits for musicians who accompanied the silent films and the stage production. Out of the 20,000 movie palaces entertaining America in 1920, the National Trust for Historic Preservation estimates that less than 250 remain. Up until January 2014, the Cabot maintained a grand tradition of elegant movie-going and live stage entertainment thanks to the Cabot's founding director Marco the Magi (Cesareo Pelaez, 1932 - 2012). He stated, “The total effect of a motion picture is conditioned by the environment in which it is shown.” Marco selected the Cabot’s “films worth seeing more than once;” he directed its attentive tuxedoed ushering staff, and designed its interior decor, including the fresh cut flower bouquets. Raised in the grand tradition from which the Cabot was born, he allowed movie-going to be an occasion where a community gathers to be entertained in an elegant environment. After Le Grand David stopped performing, the theater continued to show movies until it closed in the winter of 2012/13. In the summer of 2014, the theater was sold, and will remain a venue for live performances and cinema. In November 2014, it reopened as a performing arts center, "The Cabot", offering a mixture of film, music, and performances.

North Shore Music Theatre

North Shore Music Theatre is the largest operating regional theater in New England. It is located in Beverly, Massachusetts and is one of the few remaining theatre-in-the-round stages left in the United States. The theater is owned by Massachusetts businessman Bill Hanney.

Beverly Center Business District

The Beverly Center Business District encompasses much of the historic 19th century commercial heart of Beverly, Massachusetts. Center on Cabot and Church Streets between Central Street and the Beverly Common, its architecture reflects the city's growth over 150 years. The district was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.

Capt. John Thorndike House

The Capt. John Thorndike House is a historic First Period house at 184 Hale Street in Beverly, Massachusetts. It is a 2.5 story wood frame house with a central chimney and a raised leanto section in back. The house, like many First Period houses, was built in several stages. The oldest part, the chimney and the right side, was built as a two story section with leanto, likely in 1702 (based on the date being carved on one of the framing posts). This particular type of original sections is rare among First Period houses. Later in the first period the left side of the house was built, but without a leanto section. The left side leanto was added later in the 18th century, and part of the leanto section was raised by a shed dormer in the 19th century. The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.

Exercise Conant House

The Exercise Conant House (also the Reverend John Chipman House) is a historic First Period house at 634 Cabot Street in Beverly, Massachusetts. Most of this 2.5 story wood frame house was built after 1715 for the Reverend John Chipman, and contains many fine Georgian features. Attached to its north side is a two story single-room ell that dates to c. 1695, and was probably built by Exercise Conant, son of early Cape Ann settler Roger Conant. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990. A historical marker at the site reads, "Roger Conant was a prudent and religious man who led the old planters from Gloucester to Salem in 1626, and held them together until the Bay Colony was founded. This house was built on land given by him to his son Exercise Conant in 1666. -Massachusetts Bay Colony Tercentenary Commission".

Hazadiah Smith House

The Hazadiah Smith House is a historic First Period house at 337 Cabot Street in Beverly, Massachusetts. The 2.5 story wood frame house was built c. 1686, probably by Hazadiah Smith, whose profession is frequently listed in contemporary records as a builder or housewright. It is possible that he was responsible for a number of surviving First Period houses that survive in Beverly. This particular house, which he is believed to have lived in, was built with a two cell center chimney plan, and then extended to the rear at a later date, replacing the roof and leaving the chimney protruding from the front roof slope. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.

Oliver Wendell Holmes House

The Oliver Wendell Holmes House is a historic house at 868 Hale Street in the Beverly Farms section of Beverly, Massachusetts. Built c. 1880, this modest Victorian wood-frame house was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1972, as the only surviving structure associated with the life of Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. , whose summer home it was from 1909 until his death.

Peter Woodbury House

The Peter Woodbury House is a historic First Period house at 82 Dodge Street in Beverly, Massachusetts. It is a 2-1/2 story wood frame structure, five bays wide, with a side gable roof, large central chimney, and clapboard siding. Like most surviving First Period houses, this one was built in stages. The earliest part, dating to c. 1696, was the right front section and chimney. The left side was built in the 18th century, as was the rear leanto, which was later raised to a full second story. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.

Samuel Corning House

The Samuel Corning House is a historic First Period house at 87 Hull Street in Beverly, Massachusetts. It is a 2.5 story five bay house with a central chimney that was apparently built in stages, and is also notable for early 20th century preservation actions. The first portion, to the right of the chimney, was built c. 1700 as a typical First Period two story single cell structure. Around 1720 the left side was built, and a leanto section was added to the back at a somewhat later date. The house was purchased in 1920 by Quincy Adams Shaw McKean, who made it a part of a Colonial Revival complex he and his wife had built on their 54-acre estate. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.

William Livermore House

The William Livermore House is a historic First Period house at 271 Essex Street in Beverly, Massachusetts. It is a 2.5 story five bay colonial wood frame house that was built in stages. The oldest part of the house, the right front, was built c. 1700, along with the chimney. The left side was added early in the Second Period, and a major addition was made to the rear, adding another row of rooms and a new roof. As a result the chimney, which normally protrudes through the ridge of the roof in First Period houses, instead protrudes through the front of the roof. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.

John Cabot House

The John Cabot House is a historic house located in Beverly, Massachusetts. It is owned by the Beverly Historical Society and open to the public five days a week.

Misery Islands

The islands are a part of the city of Salem, although they are much closer to the city of Beverly, in whose (water) territory they are enclaved.

Fish Flake Hill Historic District

The Fish Flake Hill Historic District encompasses a section of Front Street in Beverly, Massachusetts that includes a remarkable concentration of colonial buildings, and which was notable for its importance in the American Revolutionary War. The district, which was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971, includes properties on both sides of Front Street between Cabot and Bartlett Streets. It includes houses dating to the middle 18th century, sixteen of which have been documented as being associated with ship captains active in the American Revolutionary War. The port area of Beverly was one of the most active during the war, and was one of the places where many captured ships were brought.

Hastings House

The Hastings House is a property owned and maintained by the Beverly Farms-Prides Crossing Community Association. It is located at 14 Oak Street in the Beverly Farms section of Beverly, Massachusetts.

Larcom Theatre

The Larcom Theatre is located on Wallis Street in Beverly, Massachusetts and offers concerts, theatrical productions and comedy presented by gimmeLIVE and Spectacle Management. From 1985 through 2012 the Larcom Theatre housed the two-hour Le Grand David production, An Anthology of Stage Magic. Harris and Glover Ware, two brothers and former vaudeville musicians from Marblehead, Massachusetts built the Larcom in 1912 and named it for the Beverly-born poet Lucy Larcom. In 1984, the Le Grand David Spectacular Magic Company bought the Larcom and launched a restoration project that dwarfed their previous Cabot Street Cinema Theatre restoration . The Larcom Theatre was purchased in 1984 and received a balcony-to-boiler-room renovation. In October 1985 the Le Grand David troupe premiered a second resident production of conjuring, music, comedy and dance “in the style and tradition of the turn of the 19th century.” In 1995, the Le Grand David Company opened an expanded wing adjoining the original Larcom structure. The new wing includes: the Grand Salon lobby (appointed in oak, marble, and brass), a full kitchen, rehearsal place, three galleries of Le Grand David apparatus and poster artwork, a library, a meeting room, a guest suite, and a caretaker's apartment. In the end of March 2016, the Larcom was listed for sale with an asking price of $699,000.

Beverly Depot-Odell Park Historic District

The Beverly Depot–Odell Park Historic District encompasses a commercial and industrial area of Beverly, Massachusetts that was developed to its height in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. A central theme of the district relates to Beverly's transportation history with several railroad-related buildings, a carriage manufactory and early automobile factory. The district, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014, include two buildings previously listed: the Beverly Depot, built 1896, and the main post office, built 1910. The district was nominated to the National Register by Windover Development in order to receive historic tax credits for their renovation of the former Friend Box Factory at 60 Pleasant St. into veterans housing. As the nomination was being reviewed by the Massachusetts Historical Commission, Windover Development planned to demolish the former Cushing Carriage Factory at 142 Rantoul St. and the former Hotel Trafton at 9 Park St. for the construction of a new apartment building. Both properties were placed on a one year demolition delay by the Beverly Historic Commission on Jan. 31, 2013. In a letter to Windover Development, the Massachusetts Historical Commission stated the Beverly Depot-Odell Park Historic District would no longer be eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places if these two key buildings were demolished. A collection of brick buildings belonging to National Grid were included in the original nomination of the district but only one avoided demolition in Feb. of 2013.
