1107 Gloucester Street, 1942 and now.
Built in 1891, 1107 Gloucester was once known as Gray Gables, a tourist home for vacationers headed to and from Florida. For many years, the home served as Edo Miller Funeral Home. Once the funeral home relocated, the chapel was removed and the home was extensively restored. The home now serves Brunswick as Grace House, a recovery home.
