Seminary Square Holiday Tour

Technically, we're two doors away from Seminary Square, but they're still our neighbors. Check it out. Wonderful homes.



COVINGTON -- Nine homes, one garden and a converted church that is now used as an office building in Covington's Old Seminary Square neighborhood will be open for the second annual Old Seminary Square Christmas Walk, 5-8 p.m. Dec. 7.


The neighborhood features Victorian architecture - from townhouses to sprawling mansions.

Members of the Holmes High School Choir will be performing Christmas carols through the evening.

Tickets, $15, will be sold at the rear of 1018 Russell St., which is at the southeast corner of Robbins and Russell streets.

Parking will be available at John G. Carlisle School, Banklick and Robbins streets, a half-block west of the ticket office.
