Millionaires' Row — stunning architecture, harbor views, and Henry H. Rogers' legacy
Population: 16,078 · South Coast Massachusetts
Fairhaven is a visual stunner. Thanks to Henry H. Rogers (Standard Oil magnate and Mark Twain's friend), the town has some of the most beautiful public buildings in New England — the Millicent Library, Town Hall, and Unitarian Memorial Church are architectural masterpieces. Fort Phoenix offers a beach with Revolutionary War history, and the bike path to New Bedford is one of the best in the region.
Millicent Library — One of the most beautiful libraries in Massachusetts. Free programming, museum passes, and a building that's worth visiting just for the architecture.
