Town Hall (Lakeville, Massachusetts)

The Old Town Hall of Lakeville, Massachusetts, is located at 2 Precinct Street. Built in 1856, it is an excellent example of a 19th-century Greek Revival town hall. The building originally housed town offices as well as hosting town meetings; it is now used primarily for the latter function. The hall was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976. Description and history Lakeville's Old Town Hall is located in its main village, at the northwest corner of Precinct and Bedford Streets. It is a 2-1/2 story wood frame structure, with a gabled roof and clapboarded exterior. Its corners have paneled pilasters, which rise to an entablature that runs along the building sides, and to short gable returns on the front facade. The front is symmetrical, with a pair of entrances, each framed by pilasters and corniced entablatures. The second-floor windows are set directly above the entrances, and are topped by projecting caps. An original noticeboard is mounted on the wall between the two entrances. The interior of the ground floor is a single large chamber, with stairs leading up to the second floor. The second floor houses an enclosed area that historically housed town offices. The principal alteration to the interior is the installation of a dropped ceiling in the meeting hall. The building was erected in 1856, and was the town's principal civic building for nearly a century. In addition to hosting town meetings, it has also at times housed the local library, and the offices of the town selectmen. The non-meeting elements of town government were moved to new facilities in 1952. This building continues to serve as a community meeting space. The CURRENT, active Town Hall is located at 346 Bedford Street, Lakeville, MA 02347. This is a long BRICK building, which included the Fire Department.

Treadwell-Sparks House

The Treadwell-Sparks House is an historic house at 21 Kirkland Street in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Built in 1838, it is a good local example of Greek Revival architecture, further notable as the home of historian Jared Sparks. Now owned by Harvard University, it was moved to its present location in 1968, and is used for professor housing. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986. Description The Treadwell-Sparks House stands on the north side of Kirkland Street, opposite Harvard's Memorial Hall. It is a two-story wood-frame structure, with a hip roof and brick chimneys. It is oriented with a sidewall facing the street, and its main facade to the east. The street-facing facade is characterized by unusually wide plain pilasters and flushboarding, while the formal front is finished in wooden clapboards. It is roughly square in plan, with three bays on each side. History The house was built, originally on nearby Quincy Street, in 1838 by housewright William Saunders for Harvard Professor Daniel Treadwell. The house was purchased in 1848 by Nathaniel Silsbee for his daughter, who was married to historian Jared Sparks. The house was purchased from Sparks' heirs by the New Church Theological School and served as the New England training center for Swedenborgian ministers. In 1901 Langford Warren, architect and member of the General Convention of the New Jerusalem (Swedenborgian), designed and oversaw the construction of a chapel, rotating the house and moving it a short distance on its lot. In the 1960s, the building was sold back to Harvard and the New Church Theological School moved to Newton. The structure was moved in 1968 about 100 yards (91 m) from its original site at 48 Quincy Street to its current location at 21 Kirkland Street in order to make room for the construction of Gund Hall. The move included moving the property's carriage house, and carefully preserved its original orientation to the street. The house now serves as the private residence of Harvard University's Plummer Professor of Christian Morals.

Trinity Episcopal Church (Lenox, Massachusetts)

Trinity Episcopal Church is an historic Episcopal church building at 88 Walker Street in Lenox, Massachusetts. Built in 1888 for a congregation organized in 1793, it is a prominent local example of Romanesque architecture, funded by Gilded Age summer congregants. The church was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996. History The first known Episcopalian church services to take place in Lenox were in 1763; it was not until 1793 that a congregation was organized. Its first building, similar to a typical colonial meeting house, was built in 1818, and survives in somewhat altered form as a commercial building on Church Street. The congregation remained small until after the American Civil War, when wealthy residents of large cities began summering in Lenox. The church was enlarged in 1873, but by 1882 it was again judged too small. Robert Auchmuty, a congregant who had apprenticed with architect James Renwick Jr., headed the committee that oversaw design and construction of the replacement. Auchmuty worked with Charles Follen McKim of McKim, Mead & White to develop plans for the church, and supervised its construction. It was built in 1888 in the Gothic Revival style for the use of a congregation composed in part of the wealthy summer visitors to The Berkshires, who funded its construction. The church was the location of society weddings. For example, on June 6, 1895, James A. Burden Jr., an heir to the Burden Iron Works, wed Florence Adele Sloan, a direct descendant of Cornelius Vanderbilt, in this church.

Trinity Episcopal Church (Melrose, Massachusetts)

The Trinity Episcopal Church is a historic church at 131 W. Emerson Street in Melrose, Massachusetts. The main church building was constructed in 1886 to a design by Boston architect Charles Brigham. It is connected to its parish house, built in 1936 with a significant addition in 1956. The church reported 158 members in 2018 and 120 members in 2023; no membership statistics were reported in 2024 parochial reports. Plate and pledge income reported for the congregation in 2024 was $121,806 with average Sunday attendance (ASA) of 44 persons. The main building is English Revival (Tudor) in styling. Its walls are made of multiple colors of granite, and are topped by a steeply pitched slate roof. There is a large projecting gable section on the southern facade, which, along with the tower in the southeastern corner, has the half-timber styling typical of Tudor Revival. The eastern facade has a projecting curved section, which houses the apse on the interior; it is from this section that the church is connected to the parish house via the somewhat utilitarian 1956 addition. The parish house was designed in Shingle Style by Boston architect and parish member William H. Smith, although with sympathy to the Tudor styling of the church. The church was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995. See also National Register of Historic Places listings in Middlesex County, Massachusetts References

Tyringham Cobble

Tyringham Cobble ist ein 206 Acres (0,8 km²) umfassendes Naturschutzgebiet bei der Stadt Tyringham im Bundesstaat Massachusetts der Vereinigten Staaten. Es wird von der Organisation The Trustees of Reservations verwaltet. Geschichte Im späten 18. Jahrhundert rodeten die ersten Siedler die bewaldeten Abhänge des namensgebenden Cobble Hill. Die Bevölkerung von Tyringham wuchs schnell; zu den ersten Einwohnern zählten auch Shaker, denen in den 1840er Jahren ein 2.000 Acres (8,1 km²) großes Grundstück gehörte, auf dem auch Tyringham Cobble lag und wo sie Rinder und Schafe weiden ließen. Um 1885 zogen sie jedoch weiter nach Hancock und Enfield, wo die Landwirtschaft mehr Profit versprach. Die Farmer, die das Grundstück übernahmen, ließen dort ebenfalls Schafe und später auch Milchkühe weiden. Auch heute noch stehen dort Hereford-Rinder, während andere Teilbereiche für die Erzeugung von Heu genutzt werden. 1930 kaufte eine Gruppe um Olivia Cutting James den Hügel und einige Parzellen in der Umgebung, um eine Bebauung zu verhindern. 1961 vererbte sie ihren Anteil an die Trustees, 1963 übereigneten auch die anderen Mitglieder der Gruppe den Rest der Grundstücke. Schutzgebiet Aus geologischer Sicht entstand der Hügel aufgrund massiver tektonischer Bewegungen, durch die lokale Bänke emporgehoben wurden und den Felsuntergrund freilegten. Es handelt sich daher um einen der wenigen Orte in Neuengland, wo man auf einer massiven Aufschiebung stehen kann. Die Basis des Hügels besteht aus im Ordovizium entstandenem Marmor, während am oberen Ende vorwiegend Gneis aus dem Präkambrium zu finden ist. Besuchern stehen 2 mi (3,2 km) Wanderwege zur Verfügung, zu denen auch ein Abschnitt des Appalachian Trail gehört. An der Nordgrenze des Schutzgebiets fließt der Hop Brook, wo der ehemalige US-Präsident Grover Cleveland bevorzugt angelte.

Tyringham Cobble

The Tyringham Cobble is a 206-acre (83 ha) open-space reservation, located in Tyringham, Massachusetts, United States, on 411 m (1,348 ft) Cobble Hill in The Berkshires. It is managed by The Trustees of Reservations, a non-profit conservation organization, and is notable for its scenic views over the rural landscape of Tyringham Valley from rocky ledges and open fields. The reservation consists of the hill and surrounding agricultural and pasture land. In 2008, part of the 2,175-mile (3,500-km) Appalachian Trail was routed over the summit ledges. History Cobble, derived from the German word kobel or koble, is usually applied to small, rocky, rounded and exposed hills. Cobble Hill belongs to the largest pre-Cambrian geologic territory in Massachusetts. Studies of the hill by geologist Daniel Clark in 1895 showed that rock strata on the bottom of the hill was younger than strata on the top, leading him to conclude, incorrectly, that the hill had "broken off a nearby mountain and flipped over during a great geological cataclysm 500 million years ago". The actual mechanism was thrust-faulting, an orogenic process by which the collision of tectonic plates results in the shoving up and over of older rock layers atop younger layers. Specimens from Clark's research are now part of the stone work above the fireplace of the Tyringham Public Library and the Berkshire Museum in Pittsfield, Massachusetts. In the early 19th century, Cobble Hill was largely cleared of forests to make room for agriculture and pasture by Shaker settlers. The property remained in agricultural use after the Shakers had departed, until the 1930s when Olivia Cutting James and a group of friends purchased parcels on the hill and surrounding pastures to protect it from development, partly in response to a proposed ski area. James's group called themselves "The Cobblers", and they created an informal association of tenants in common. James left the property to The Trustees of Reservations in 1961; other members of her group donated their holdings in 1963. Recreation A trailhead parking lot is located on Jerusalem Road in Tyringham center. The trail system consists of a summit loop trail and the Appalachian Trail, which passes over the summit from northwest to southeast. Prior to 2008, the Appalachian Trail had passed through the west side of the reservation without ascending the summit. A natural sandstone monolith resembling a rabbit is located on the south side of Cobble Hill. Open hay fields ascend the east foot of the hill. The reservation is open to hiking, picnicking, and cross-country skiing.
