The picture book Rick carried helped make the
stories come alive. We also got a quick private
tour of the beautifully restored Granada Theater
before continuing to the Granary building on
Depot Street. Local architects Charles Weston
and Leslie Miles remodeled the iconic Granary
to become one of South County’s first LEED Gold
Certified green buildings. This brought us full
circle back to the Parking Garage and the end of
the tour.
Our guides, Clay and Rick, were
knowledgeable and open to all of our questions.
The Walking Tour is a great way to contextualize
our place in history and all the changes
happening in Morgan Hill. Take this “walk back
in time.” It is priceless and a great introduction
to our heritage.
