Friends of Duane Park lets the media preview some of the nine homes on the tour. (P.S. The event needs volunteers: “In exchange for volunteering for a 2-hour shift—either 1-3 p.m. or 3-5 p.m.—you will receive a free ticket to take the tour yourself.” More info.)

The first property from the media preview is a showstopper of a 6,500-square-foot corner loft on Franklin Street, designed by Mitchell Owen of Consolidated Design Studios. Two apartments were combined; the six-bedroom result is meant to be both family-friendly and entertaining-friendly.
