• The House That Shaped Old Greenwich: The Hidden 323-Year History of the c. 1703 Reynolds–Peck House (greenwichfreepress.com) — A 323-year-old farmhouse at 44 Sound Beach Avenue has been confirmed as the remarkably intact Reynolds–Peck House, a First Period architectural treasure that once anchored a 300-acre farm spanning today's Binney Park, Perrot Library and the First Congregational Church. The piece traces how this unmoved Old Greenwich landmark shaped the town's development, from colonial land swaps and wartime defenses to modern road realignments.
