From the moment she took the stand in what was one of the first highly publicized trials in American history, Lizzie Borden has been an object of fascination. Now, her former home where her father, Andrew, and step-mother, Abby, were murdered in 1892 is up for sale, along with Maplecroft, the house she and her sister Emma purchased following her trial. An entrepreneur named Donald Woods currently owns both buildings, and according to Suzanne St. John, the real estate agent for both properties, he’s selling them because he’s getting ready to retire.

FALL RIVER â This is the story of how a high-school dropout and a shy kid from a trailer park turned a pop-up show into a museum.
Harry Gould Harvey IV and Brittni Ann Harvey arenât the types you expect to see on the international gallery circuit. They grew up poor in communities near Fall River. Harry, now 29, calls himself âa destitute swamp yankee.â Brittni, 28, didnât think she was worthy of attending RISD, and went to two other schools before she dared apply â and was accepted. Both became artists, exhibiting in New York and beyond.
