Historic Lincoln Home Being Repaired
Construction is being done to one of Hingham's oldest homes.
The historic Lincoln home in Hingham is expected to be repaired by next month after it was destroyed by a fire in February.
New windows were installed last week and the interior is expected to be completed in the next month, a construction worker from Monica MacKenzie confirmed.
The homeowner was able to escape along with his wife and kids after the home caught flames last winter. The home was left uninhabitable and had been boarded up since the incident.
The historic home, located at 170 North Street, was built in 1721 on land originally purchased by President Abraham Lincoln's 4th great grandfather, Samuel Lincoln. It was built by his grandson, Samuel Lincoln III.
