Historic Restoration Project Gallery

The Patrick J. Morgan Cultural Center

The Patrick J. Mogan Cultural Center has been open since 1989 with the goal of "telling the human story of Lowell" through community-sponsored exhibits, initiatives, and programs. The building at 40 French Street has been refurbished from its previous life as a corporation boarding house block for young ladies working in the textile mills. Dr. Patrick J. Mogan, an educator and public visionary, had faith that Lowell could be a catalyst for citizens to rediscover their roots and a role model for the rest of the country, therefore he was honored with a center bearing his name. We're grateful to the center for letting us help restore this beautiful property.
