Saving Glover’s Historic Home | Boston News

A historic Revolutionary War home, once owned by General John Glover—the hero who led the daring crossing of the Delaware—is caught in a fierce battle between preservation and development. Nestled off a busy North Shore intersection, the neglected farmhouse, recently confirmed to date back to the 1750s, is now at the center of a tug-of-war: a developer wants to build a massive apartment complex on the four-acre site, but locals are rallying hard to save it. With a grassroots group “Save the Glover” already raising over $600,000 and the developer offering $250,000 toward restoration—with strings attached—the future hangs in the balance. This isn’t just about bricks and mortar—it’s about honoring a founding father’s legacy across three towns, where history and progress collide.
