Thomas Chubbuck Jr. House

The Thomas Chubbuck Jr. House is a historic house in Hingham, Massachusetts. Built in 1778, it is the best-preserved three-quarter Cape style house in the town, and is further noted for its long association with locally important Chubbuck and Gardner families. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992. Description and history The Chubbuck House is set on the west side of Main Street (Massachusetts Route 228), a short way north of Whiting Street in southern Hingham. The house is a 1+1⁄2-story wood-frame structure, with a main block and a series of discreet additions to the rear. The main block is four bays wide (instead of the more common five, hence three-quarters the number of windows), with the entrance in the left center bay. It has a side-gable roof, central chimney, and clapboard siding, and rests on a granite foundation. Its windows are set close the eave, and are, like the entrance, simply framed. The interior retains a substantial amount of original detail, including plaster and woodwork, and an original beehive oven in the kitchen fireplace. The land on which the house was built in 1778 by Thomas Chubbuck Jr., a farmer and American Revolutionary War soldier who was descended from Thomas Chubbuck (d. 1676), one of Hingham's first settlers. The house is the only one in Hingham known to be built by one of Chubbuck's descendants, and is one of only two three-quarter Capes from the period (out of more than 100 Cape style houses in the town). It remained in the family until 1850, when it was sold to Nancy Whiton Gardner. The Gardners, also descended from an early Hingham family, retained ownership of the property until 1960.

Thomas Cook House (Somerville, Massachusetts)

The Thomas Cook House is a historic house in Somerville, Massachusetts. Built c. 1850, it is the only surviving Greek Revival farmhouse on the west side of the city, and a reminder of the area's agrarian past. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989. Description and history The Thomas Cook House stands in the dense residential area of northwestern Somerville. It stands on the north side of a bend in College Hill Road, a short side street between North Street and Conwell Avenue. It is a 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame structure, with a gabled roof and clapboarded exterior. The building corners have pilasters, which rise to a full entablature and fully pedimented gable ends. The main entrance is at the center of a side-facing three-bay facade, with a gabled pediment above. That pediment, and a finish strip between the first and second floors, are both later stylistic modifications to the house. The house was built about 1850 by Thomas Cook, a local farmer. This area of West Somerville was principally used for market gardens, and did not see development pressure until well after Tufts University was established on land to the east in 1852. Beginning in the 1880s the area was subdivided for residential development. This house, originally facing North Street to the west, was moved to its present location, and the surrounding land was eventually built over with two and three-family houses.

Thomas Low House

The Thomas Low House is a historic house in Ipswich, Massachusetts. It is a 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame house, with a symmetrically windowed five-bay main facade, a rear two-story addition, and a second two-story addition on the right side. The house is first mentioned in a 1708 deed, when it was transferred from John Low to his brother Thorndike. The house has only very minor evidence of its First Period origin. It began as a two-story structure with two rooms on each floor and a chimney between. A leanto addition came at a later date, and was raised to a full second story sometime in the 18th century. The addition on the right side is modern (1981), but is built on the footprint of an older addition. The house was complete restyled during the Federalist period. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.

Thomas March Woodbridge House

Thomas March Woodbridge House is a historic house at 48 Bridge Street in Salem, Massachusetts. Description and history The three-story brick house was built in 1809 for Thomas March Woodbridge, owner of a local tannery. Its construction has been attributed to noted Salem builder Samuel McIntire, based on its similarity to other McIntire works. It is square, with five bays on each side. The front door is centered on the main facade topped by a semi-elliptical fanlight and flanked by sidelight windows. Entrances on the side elevations are sheltered by broken pediments supported by Doric columns. Woodbridge died in 1822, after which the house went through a succession of owners. It was briefly owned by the Society for the Preservation of New England Antiquities (now Historic New England) before it was bought by Children's Friend and Family Service Society of the North Shore, Inc. in 1955. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975. The house stands just outside the Bridge Street Neck Historic District.

Timothy Corey House No. 1

The Timothy Corey House No. 1 is a historic house at 808 Washington Street in Brookline, Massachusetts. Built in 1806, it is a good example of vernacular Federal architecture, and was home for over a century to members of one of the town's most prominent early families. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985. Description and history The Timothy Corey House No. 1 is located in Brookline's Corey Hill neighborhood, on the south side of Washington Street just west of its junction with Downing Street. It is a 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame structure with a side-gable roof and clapboarded exterior, set back from the road on a rise with a low stone retaining wall at the sidewalk. It is five bays wide and two deep. A single-story open porch extends across the front, which was probably added c. 1920, with a covered portico above the center entrance. This house was built c. 1806 for Deacon Timothy Corey, cofounder of the first Baptist Church in Brookline. The Corey family were prominent landowners in the area, for whom Corey Hill is named. The family had owned land in this area since the 1760s, and ran a successful farm and orchard. The house passed out of the family in 1919, when Timothy Corey's spinster daughter Abie willed it to a local church. It is one of the town's few reminders of a once agrarian past.

Timothy Corey House No. 2

The Timothy Corey House No. 2 is a historic house at 786–788 Washington Street in Brookline, Massachusetts. Built in 1843, it is one of Brookline's few stone houses. It is a vernacular Greek Revival in style, and was home to members of one of the town's most prominent early families. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on October 17, 1985. Description and history The Timothy Corey House No. 2 stands in Brookline's residential Corey Hill neighborhood, on the south side of Washington Street at its southeast corner with Downing Street. It is a 2+1⁄2-story structure, built out of fieldstone and covered by a gabled roof. The gable ends, also finished in stone, are fully pedimented, and the roof is pierced by two interior chimneys. It has a five-bay front facade, with a center entrance sheltered by a 20th-century portico. The house was built in 1843 for Deacon Timothy Corey; his first house stands nearby at 808 Washington Street. The house is locally distinctive for its construction material, since stone has historically been rarely used in house construction in the area. Stylistically it is a vernacular interpretation of the Greek Revival. The house was built on land that was in the Corey family's hands since the 1760s, and was supposedly built on the site of the house built by Timothy Corey's father.

Tolland State Forest

Der Tolland State Forest ist einer der staatlichen Parks im US-Bundesstaat Massachusetts, genauer in der Gemeinde Otis im Berkshire County in den südlichen Berkshire Mountains. Die Leitung des knapp 4000 ha großen Parks lag beim Department of Conservation and Recreation, seit 2015 beim Department of Energy and Environmental Affairs. Im Park finden sich Schwarzbären, Truthähne, Elche und Hirsche. Mit dem Ankauf durch den Staat soll der Fragmentierung der Habitate entgegengewirkt werden. Das Gebiet am Twining Lake schließt knapp einen Kilometer Ufer am Farmington River ein, dazu knapp 2 km am flachen Twining Lake selbst. Es gilt als „Critical Natural Landscape“ und ist der größte, nichtfragmentierte Wald im Bundesstaat Massachusetts. 2011 erwarb der Bundesstaat 843 Acre an der Grenze zum Hampden County. 782 Acre stammen von der Twining Lake Properties Inc., die das Gebiet für 3 Millionen Dollar verkaufte. Ursprünglich sollten hier für knapp 7 Millionen Dollar 200 Baugrundstücke (lots) angeboten werden, der Staat schätzte das Gelände auf einen Wert von höchstens 5 Millionen Dollar. Ein Campingplatz mit 90 Plätzen befindet sich auf einer Halbinsel im Otis Reservoir, das das Kernstück des Parks darstellt. Die Massachusetts Division of Fisheries & Wildlife bestückt den See mit Forellen.

Tolland State Forest

Tolland State Forest is a publicly owned forest with recreational features covering 4,415 acres (1,787 ha) in the towns of Otis, Tolland, Blandford and Sandisfield in the southern Berkshire Hills of Massachusetts. The state forest centers on the 1,065-acre (431 ha) Otis Reservoir, the largest body of water for recreational use in western Massachusetts. The forest is managed by the Department of Conservation and Recreation. History The state forest was created with the state's purchase of cut-over lumber lands in 1925. A Civilian Conservation Corps camp opened here in 1933. The Corps created the day-use and camping areas on the peninsula that extends into Otis Reservoir. In 1966, the state expanded the forest through the purchase of the reservoir and surrounding lands. Activities and amenities Forest trails are available for hiking, mountain biking, off-road vehicles, and cross-country skiing. The campground includes sites for tents and RVs. The day-use area offers swimming, picnicking, and a boat ramp. The reservoir is stocked in spring and fall with trout by the Massachusetts Division of Fisheries & Wildlife. The forest also offers educational programs and restricted hunting.

Town Diner

Das Deluxe Town Diner (ehem. Town Diner) ist ein 1947 gebauter Diner in Watertown im Bundesstaat Massachusetts der Vereinigten Staaten. Es wurde am 22. September 1999 im Rahmen der Multiple Property Submission Diners of Massachusetts MPS unter der Bezeichnung Town Diner in das National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) eingetragen. Beschreibung Das Town Diner ist eines der ältesten noch existierenden Diner in Massachusetts, die nicht wie zuvor in der Fabrik vollständig vorgefertigt, sondern unmittelbar vor Ort errichtet wurden. Es befindet sich nahe der Grenze zu Cambridge in einem Geschäftsviertel von Watertown an der Massachusetts Route 16. Das Diner besteht aus einem nahezu rechteckigen Stahlskelett, an das an der Südostseite ein auf einem Holzrahmen aufgebauter Anbau angrenzt. Dieses L-förmige Aussehen erhielt das Restaurant bei seiner Errichtung 1947, als es um einen älteren Restaurantwagen der Worcester Lunch Car Company herumgebaut wurde, der heute als Küche dient und von außen nicht zu sehen ist. Das Restaurant steht auf einem hohen Betonfundament, in das Kellerfenster aus Glas eingelassen sind. Es verfügt über ein Tonnendach und ist mit creme- bzw. petrolfarbener Email verkleidet. Die Ecken sind teilweise abgerundet, und an der nordöstlichen sowie der nordwestlichen Gebäudeseite gibt es jeweils einen Eingang. Die Inneneinrichtung ist eine Mixtur aus diner- und restauranttypischen Gegenständen und weitgehend im Original erhalten. Die Theke erstreckt sich über die gesamte Länge des nordöstlichen Teilstücks des L-förmigen Grundrisses und verfügt über 16 mit PVC bezogene Barhocker. Entlang der Längsseiten befinden sich zusätzliche Tischnischen. Historische Bedeutung Das erste Town Diner an diesem Standort wurde Mitte der 1930er Jahre von Joseph E. Carroll eröffnet, damals noch in einem kleinen Restaurantwagen der Worcester Lunch Car Company. Ab 1942 betrieb Arthur C. Derosiers das Diner und übergab es 1945 an den rund 30 Jahre zuvor aus Griechenland eingewanderten Louis Contos, der es gemeinsam mit seinem Sohn George betrieb. Sie erweiterten das Diner 1947 durch den L-förmigen Anbau erheblich und funktionierten den ehemaligen Restaurantwagen zur neuen Küche um. Das Design kombiniert Elemente des klassischen Barrel-Roof-Diners mit zeitgemäßen Stilelementen der 1940er Jahre, wie bspw. die großzügige Verwendung von rostfreiem Stahl zeigt. Die Familie Contos betrieb das Diner bis in die 1980er Jahre, als der gegenwärtige Eigentümer das Diner übernahm, der heute noch zwei weitere „Deluxe-Diner“ in Massachusetts betreibt.

Town Diner

The Deluxe Town Diner is a historic diner in Watertown, Massachusetts. History This diner was manufactured on site, rather than having been prefabricated and shipped to the site from a specific diner manufacturer. In 1947, George Contos and his father built this diner around their earlier Worcester Lunch Car Company diner. The Worcester diner became the kitchen in the current building. The Town Diner's two-tone porcelain siding and its round glass-block corners combine architectural features of the Worcester and Paramount Diner manufacturers, respectively. The diner was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1999 as "Town Diner". In 2000, the diner was purchased by new owners. They reinstalled the diner's original counter and booths, and restored the walls to their original appearance by removing paneling. The menu was also revamped. The diner featured in a 2011 music video by Blue Man Group. See also National Register of Historic Places listings in Middlesex County, Massachusetts References External links Official website
