About
Walking Tours
Join us for a historic tour of Lower Doon, learning about the neighbourhood Homer Watson lived in and captured via painting. Beginning with a few buildings and no electricity, evolving into a “company town” before becoming part of Berlin, the Lower Doon neighbourhood has seen fires, floods, railways, and mills.
