The Jacob Wyeth House at the Concord Avenue Rotary is looking spiffy
with a new roof, windows, and clapboards. The building is being renovated
to provide housing for the homeless. The structure was built in 1816
on the hillside of what is now Kingsley Park at Fresh Pond Reservation.
It was the home of the man who built the Fresh Pond Hotel. In 1893 it
was moved to its present location
