Secrets of Allentown

Secrets of Allentown Over the years, Secrets has evolved to include apartment buildings, non-profits, offices, and other commercial buildings as well as private residences.

With a starting point at the magnificent Twentieth Century Club, the decades-old home tour that has become one of Allentown’s signature events will be held this month. Participants in the tour get a rare glimpse of the interior of historic structures, instead of just an exterior walking tour, which is what is usually offered. The Twentieth Century Club at 595 Delaware is the starting point and hea

dquarters for the tour. Participants may buy tickets if they have not already done so and pick up their tour booklets. They can also sign up for a guided tour of the E.B. Green-designed TCC, which just received National Landmark status. The TCC contains, among many other details, a central court with ionic columns and leaded glass skylights, a music room with murals by Alice Glenny, an oval ballroom with an adjoining loggia, and several beautifully-appointed smaller reception rooms. It is one of Buffalo’s least-seen treasures, and this a rare opportunity for Secrets tickets holders, as the Club is rarely opened for any kind of tour. As always, a free wine tasting will be held at the Hamlin House on Franklin during the tour. Tickets for Secrets can be purchased through Tickets.com, at the Quaker Bonnet at 175 Allen and through the Allentown.org website. Tickets are $20 in advance and $25 the day of the event. The Secrets committee is led by co-chairs Elizabeth Licata and Sandra Sieminski, with help from Jonathan White, Gretchan Grobe, Andrew Eisenhardt, and Melissa Dayton. Visit Allentown.org for more information.
