King Hooper Mansion
Historic House
Built in stages between 1728 and 1747 for Robert "King" Hooper, a wealthy merchant and loyalist. Hooper's nickname reflected his commercial power rather than political sympathies, though he ultimately sided with the Crown. The mansion now houses the Marblehead Arts Association and is open for exhibits.
