Nazareth College

(Nazareth and Gull Road)

 

 

Description: Sisters of St. Joseph, wonderful retreat center

 

Why it should be preserved: The land had been used for many years as a health, education, and recreation area.  There is a lot of history in the area.  It is a religious place and an excellent area for spiritual retreats and community use.  The sisters of St. Joseph purchased the tract of land on Gull Road and opened a secondary school for girls in 1897.  The four year college began in 1924.
