Burke just completed this classic style pergola to replace the time-worn structure in the same place.  When he discovered the columns lying around the property years ago, he was struck by how their style harmonized with the Greek Revival columns on The House's verandahs.

ORIGINAL PERGOLA Fall 2012

Above:  George Burke designed and constructed this elegant pergola to grace the grounds to the right side of The Joseph H. Seguine House.  It stood for many years.
Below:  A champion of adaptive reuse, Burke rescued these graceful columns from the ruins of a much older pergola on the property, stacking them in a corner of the yard behind The House.  Because their style harmonized with The House,  he knew one day he would use them.
