| Description |
When Hanna and Gertrude Monaghan arrived in Nantucket from Philadelphia in the summer of 1929, they discovered and fell in love with a late eighteenth-century pig barn that still sits on Howard Street, just outside of the town center. They gutted parts of the barn, built stages and lofts, shipped in stained-glass windows, iron grilles, and cartons full of antiques. They called the building "Greater Light," in reference to the Quaker concept of the spirit that resides within each person, the "inner light." The house is still studied today for its architectural uniqueness and beauty, and for the diversity of treasures collected within. Image number: P16956 |
