Concord, MA: BEAUTIFUL Concord Free Public Library, and Craptacular Schindler Elevator
Since viewpoints are scarce, and the Lobby was too crowded, we get as good of a view as we can, at upper and lower levels of the Atrium, at the Concord Free Public Library, Concord, Massachusetts.
Since the library was featured in a travel calendar, and not far from Work, I went to see it in-person. It's BEAUTIFUL, and is MUCH BIGGER inside, than it looks on the outside. Problem is, all the balconies are off-limits, so I do what I can, which isn't a lot.
Speaking of letdowns, we ride the Schindler Hydraulic Elevator, and it rides as bad as this lift is asthetic to the building. Rough, bouncy, it's Schindler!
(Initially I thought KONE, while getting a start point for the video, but the sounds of the hydraulics is 100% Schindler. The ride in-video matches in crappiness.)

Concord Streets
In historic Concord Massachusetts, the Milldam is the greatest village in America, here are pictures of people in town. In this town, the Revolution began at Old North Bridr, and here Harvard relocated during the Revolution. The sixties were charged by a wave of smart children, offspring of the World War II and high tech industries. Amazing town.. Another Concord Foibles and Other Tails.

Columbia, More Info:
The Col. James Barrett Farm (Barrett's Farm) is a historic farm at
448 Barrett's Mill Road in Concord, Massachusetts.
James Barrett was Colonel of the Concord, Massachusetts Militia
during the Battles of Lexington and Concord that began the American Revolutionary War.
His farm was the storage site of all the town of Concord's Militia gunpowder,
weapons and two pairs of prized bronze cannons, according to secret
British intelligence.
On the morning of April 19, 1775, the British Regulars were ordered by
General Thomas Gage to march from Boston to the town of Concord,
about 20 miles inland, and seize the cannon and raid the arsenal at the provincial farm.
The British met resistance at both Lexington, Massachusetts and Concord.
Before the British arrived and searched, the stores had been concealed in a
field nearby, and the British never found them.
