The name comes from the wives of mariners who would watch for their spouses to return. In some instances, the ocean took the lives of the mariners, leaving the women as widows; who would often thereafter gaze out to sea wishing beyond hope that their loved ones would return home and hence the name widow's walk was born.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-20312745185702029122007-11-21T08:57:00.000-08:002007-11-21T08:57:00.000-08:00The signage itself helps lend an air of the 50's t...The signage itself helps lend an air of the 50's too.
