History of Object: Booklet for the Legacy Home Tour of September 2021, which due to Covid-19 corona virus pandemic could not be held with opened homes. In 2019, the Alameda Museum had declined to participate in the Home Tour, and an organization was created, The Legacy Home Tour, separate from the AAPS. The 2021 Tour was using a web site and app, with audio clips featuring Denise Brady. The app included more homes than the guidebook. The booklet was only available on special order. Starting point for the walk was at 891 Union Street, the Leonard Mansion. The walk led along sections of Grand, Union, Lafayette and Chestnut Streets, and Clinton, San Jose, and San Antonio Avenue.
