The most notable improvements include the creation of the Great Room with space for Michael’s grand piano which has hosted countless house concerts and cabarets, as well as adding on the popular Bonaventure room (now called Armstrong) named after Rob’s brother, who introduced Rob to Provincetown, and was known as Brother Bonaventure.
