Explore the Spirited Lakefront of BURLINGTON, VT BY ELLEN HONEY
A vibrant, compact city hugging the eastern shoreline of Lake Champlain, Burlington abounds in scenic beauty, four-season recreation, a college town vibe, arts and culture, and a quirky character all its own. Eclectic shops named Anjou & the Little Pear or Common Deer, and restaurants called Zabby & Elf ’s Stone Soup or The Skinny Pancake dot the urban landscape. A local artist’s satirical
comment on the bureaucracy of urban planning called File Under So. Co., Waiting for…, consists of 38 filing cabinets welded together to a 40-foot height. Birds frequently nest in the upper chambers. History buffs stroll through the Ethan Allen Homestead Museum or the Fleming Museum of Art’s multi-era artifact collection while hikers trek the 12.5-mile path at Burlington
