The Seven Wonders of Lexington There are the famous “Seven Won- ders of the World”, and then there are the “Seven Wonders of Lexington”; equally impressive spectacles on a slightly smaller scale. Some of these landmarks, like the Battle Green, attract national attention, others, like Wilson’s Farm, are of a more local nature. All these ‘“wonders”, however, are unique to Lexington, nothing that a Waltham or a Burlington could boast. The Hayden Recreation Centre is one of Lexington’s wonders. Here thousands of Lexington kids have learned to swim, cook, do woodwork, and twirl batons. The second wonder of Lexington is the downtown Brig- ham’s, a favorite youth gathering spot, rain or shine. While we may see the Battle Green and the Minuteman Statue every time we go downtown, thousands of tour- ists from all over the world flock to see them each year, cameras in hand. Le- xington’s fifth wonder, the Museum of Our National Heritage, housing one of the finest collections of Americana in the nation. Representing many of the historic homes in Lexington is Munroe Tavern, a local landmark for over 200 years. Our sixth wonder is Wilson’s Farm, purveyor of the area’s best produce. What’s the seventh wonder? L.H.S., of course!
