Alumni Stadium

Alumni Stadium is a college football stadium on the lower campus of Boston College in Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts. It is about 6 miles (9.7 km) west of downtown Boston, just inside the Boston city limits near the border with Newton. It is the home of the Boston College Eagles football program and also hosts lacrosse games on occasion. Its seating capacity is 44,500. History Alumni Field, Boston College's first stadium, opened in 1915 and was just south of Gasson Quadrangle on the site of the present Stokes Hall, an academic building for the humanities that opened in 2013. Before the building of Stokes, the area was known as The Dustbowl, a nickname that originated as a description of Alumni Field in the years when it was used as a practice field, a baseball diamond, and a running track. Formally dedicated "as a memorial to the boys that were" on October 30, 1915, Alumni Field and its "maroon goal-posts on a field of green" were hailed in that evening's edition of the Boston Saturday Evening Transcript as "one of the sights in Boston". The original grandstands, which could accommodate 2,200 spectators in 1915, were enlarged over the subsequent years to 25,000. Nonetheless, Alumni Field often proved too small for BC football games, which were frequently held at Fenway Park, and later Braves Field, beginning in the 1930s. On September 21, 1957, Alumni Stadium opened on Boston College's lower campus. The new stadium incorporated a football field encircled by a regulation track with a seating capacity of 26,000. The dedication game, a match-up with the Midshipmen of the U.S. Naval Academy, was orchestrated with the help of Boston College benefactor and then U.S. Senator John F. Kennedy. Kennedy, who received his honorary degree at Commencement Exercises in Alumni Field the previous year, returned to Alumni Stadium on a number of occasions, including to give the 1963 Convocation Address, one of his last public appearances prior to his assassination on November 22, 1963. Alumni Stadium in its present form has hosted 42 sellout crowds of 44,500 or greater, most recently on November 1, 2025 against Notre Dame. Renovations In 1971, the stadium was expanded to 32,000 seats and artificial turf and lights were installed. The stadium was rebuilt again in 1988, adding near-identical upper decks on each sideline as well as a new press box, built into the new Conte Forum.

Conte Forum

The Silvio O. Conte Forum, commonly known as Conte Forum, Kelley Rink (for ice hockey games), or simply Conte, is an 8,606-seat multi-purpose arena which opened in 1988 in Boston, Massachusetts on the campus of Boston College in the Chestnut Hill neighborhood. Conte Forum is home to the Boston College Eagles men's and women's basketball and ice hockey teams as well as the Boston College Marching Band. History Conte Forum is named for former United States congressman Silvio O. Conte, an alumnus of Boston College and Boston College Law School. The ice rink is named in honor of long-time BC hockey coach John "Snooks" Kelley. The entire arena is traditionally called "Kelley Rink" during hockey games. Before the arena opened in 1988, the BC basketball teams played their home games in Roberts Center to the immediate southwest of Alumni Stadium, on the site of the present-day Merkert Chemistry Center. Games expected to draw more than its 4,400 capacity were moved off-campus to Boston Garden. The Eagles hockey teams played at McHugh Forum which was positioned parallel to Alumni Stadium. Conte Forum was built on the site of McHugh Forum, and is situated perpendicular to the football stadium. The arena is directly adjacent to Alumni, with some luxury boxes overlooking both the football field and arena floors. Conte Forum seats 8,606 spectators in its basketball configuration and 7,884 when set up for hockey. The facility also houses 950-seat Power Gym which is used for BC volleyball games and as an auxiliary basketball court. As the largest indoor venue on the BC campus, Conte Forum hosts larger university-related events including conferences and debates. It is the site of the annual "Pops-on-the-Heights" during the annual Parents' Weekend in the fall, a gala concert featuring the Boston Pops Orchestra which raises over $1.5 million for BC's academic scholarship fund. In the event of inclement weather, Conte Forum also hosts the university's commencement exercises. Since 2008, Conte Forum has also hosted the Boston College AHANA Leadership Council Showdown in the spring, an increasingly popular dance competition between BC's various dance and cultural organizations. Conte has also hosted numerous concerts, including in recent years Akon, Third Eye Blind, hellogoodbye, The Roots, Kanye West, and The Academy Is, as well as Will Ferrell's Funny or Die Comedy Tour. On January 5, 2014, the Conte Forum was the venue for Boston mayor Marty Walsh's inauguration. In Boston's proposed bid for the 2024 Summer Olympics, Conte Forum was selected as a potential venue for various events, such as Wrestling and Judo. However, the city eventually withdrew the bid.

Kingston Collection

Kingston Collection is a one-story enclosed shopping center and mall located in the South Shore region of Massachusetts in the United States. As of December 2025, The mall features 37 stores and restaurants. The mall's anchor store is Target. It also features a Regal Cinemas. One of the anchor tenants was redeveloped into apartments on the mall grounds. History Independence Mall opened in 1989 in Kingston. The original anchors to the mall were Filene's, Filene's Basement, JCPenney, Sears, and Hoyts Cinema. On December 5, 2011, construction began on a brand new, 58,000 square foot Regal Cinemas 14 complex, to replace the original, out-of-date Hoyts Cinema. On November 20, 2013, plans for a drastic renovation of the mall were announced, and would include changing the entire exterior facade, an interior face-lift (including tile work, new paint coatings, and renovated restrooms), plush soft seating areas with free Wifi, new stores and dining options, and a larger selection of stores overall. Other pieces of the project included the reopening of the basement (which had not been open to the public since 1998, and would also be extensively renovated), redevelopment of the center court and the former Best Buy (which closed in 2010), and the addition of an F-100 indoor racetrack, K1 Speed. The mall was renamed Kingston Collection in 2014. On November 11, 2014, the mall was evacuated due to a Tier2 HazMat situation. A witness in the food court said that she was getting a coffee and the lights went out, then the fire alarm went off. People also in the cinema were evacuated, with people describing the smell like pepper spray. Ambulances, Firefighters and police arrived at the scene, with two people being brought to the hospital. On October 23, 2014, it was announced that Sears would be closing as part of a plan to close 77 stores nationwide. The store closed in January 2015. In early 2021, the former Sears was demolished, apartments were later built on that site. On July 16, 2023, Pyramid sold the mall to the Florida-based Second Horizon Capital for $9 million. Afterward, the mall's management was turned over to Spinoso Real Estate Group. On October 11, 2024, it was announced that Macy's would be closing in early 2025. On January 9, 2025, the store would be added to a list of 66 closing Macy's locations nationwide. The store closed on March 23, 2025, which left Target as the only anchor.

Indian Hill House

Indian Hill House is a private residence named for the Indian Hills of Groton, Massachusetts. Designed in 1962-63 by Maurice K. Smith, the house was built by Ralph S. Osmond & Sons. The house appears in several architectural works, including the Harvard Art Review (1967), Harvard Educational Review (1969), Spazio e Societa, June 1982, as Casa/House 1 and Progressive Architecture (March 1982), [3 images w/o notation]. An extensive photographic study of the house, then only a few years old, was taken for the Winter 1967 issue of Harvard Art Review. In his 1967 work, World Architecture 4, John Donat described this house as "a place that prescribes nothing, an architecture that is intense without imposing itself on you." He goes on to write that this family house is "a place of real options and opportunities [that] can be richly interpreted by whoever is living in it." Architect Smith interviewed Richard Rush in 1982 for an item in Progressive Architecture. In his 1989 work, Architecture and Urbanism, Henry Plummer concluded of this house that it contained "innumerable locales, of fragmentary rooms loosely interlocked, of zones both intimate and grand, created for an almost endless array of eyes, and heads and bodies and voices, an abundance which no longer bears upon the needs of a single person. Not only does the building form evolve but it is never perceived by two persons in quite the same way.". Mr. Plummer returned in 2003 to follow up with Masters of Light: Twentieth Century Pioneers. MIT School of Architecture Chair Mark Jarzombek wrote in 2013, "Indian Hill House – in a more restrained clean modernist aesthetic — is different from [Smith's] own house in many respects. A series of low, concrete walls staggered across the crest of the hill rise up to meet wooden, glazed walls of slightly different heights. The whole is protected by shed-and-gable roofs designed to appear as thin and lightweight as possible." See also: Combining Tectonic and Stereotomic Systems, 2014., "Cape Cod Modern: Midcentury Architecture and Community on the Outer Cape," 2014., "Maurice Smith's Spatial Collages," 2016. Indian Hill House is set on 7 acres (28,000 m2) at the uphill woodland end of Skyfields Drive. The property complements a nearly 500-acre (2.0 km2) preserve of surrounding woodland under care of the Groton Conservation Trust, Massachusetts Audubon Society, and Groton Conservation Commission. Its Indian Hill Road access was closed and the approach changed to Skyfields Drive when the original, larger property was subdivided in March 2000. During its planning and construction from 1962 to 1965, Indian Hill House was referred to by architect Smith as "Blackman House 1" to be followed in the 1990s by Blackman House 2 (Manchester-By-The-Sea). Blackman House 3 (Groton) was designed by others. Fifty-three drawings and photographs of the house are kept by the MIT Libraries. References
Indian Orchard Branch Library

The Indian Orchard Branch Library is a historic branch library at 44 Oak Street in Springfield, Massachusetts. The Classic Revival building was constructed in 1909 to a design by John W. Donohue, and was the first permanent branch library building in the Springfield public library system; it was funded in part by a grant from Andrew Carnegie. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999; it continues to serve as a library as a branch of the Springfield City Library system. Architecture and history The Indian Orchard Branch Library is located in Springfield's northeastern Indian Orchard neighborhood, at the junction of Worcester and Oak Streets. It consists of the original 1909 building, and an addition made to the rear. The original block is a single story in height, with walls that are mainly brick, and a slate hip roof. A gabled entry vestibule projects to the front, with the entrance recessed behind Tuscan columns. The flanking wall facades each have a band of three windows set in a shared opening. Both the building corners and window openings exhibit stone quoining. The interior retains many original features, including Tuscan columns and pilasters and brick fireplaces. Indian Orchard developed in the 19th century as a somewhat isolated enclave of industry and residence apart from the rest of the city. Its first library was a private effort founded in 1859 by the Indian Orchard Mills Corporation, which was offered as a free service to area residents. This library had a collection of 1500 volumes by 1884. The city's public library by then had a small collection of 900 volumes maintained by a volunteer. Calls for a permanent branch library began in 1901. Henry Kirke Wight donated space in a commercial building at Oak and Main Streets, which was put to use in 1901. Later in the decade, the city received a grant from philanthropist Andrew Carnegie for new and updated library facilities, which was used in part to fund construction of the present building. It was designed by John W. Donohoe, a prominent local architect, and opened in 1909. The building was featured in a 1911 edition of The American Architect for its simple but elegant Classical Revival design.

Ipswich River Wildlife Sanctuary

The Ipswich River Wildlife Sanctuary, which is one of the Massachusetts Audubon Society’s largest wildlife sanctuaries, is located in Topsfield and Wenham, Massachusetts. Much of its 1,955-acre (7.91 km2) landscape was created by a glacier 15,000 years ago. Features The sanctuary features 12 miles (19 km) of interconnected trails wind through forests, meadows, and swamps, vernal pools, drumlins, and eskers. The Rockery Trail runs beside large rocks, exotic trees, and shrubs that belonged to an arboretum at Bradstreet Farm, parts of which were donated by owner Thomas Emerson Proctor. The Ipswich River runs for 8 miles (13 km) through the sanctuary, and Mass Audubon makes canoes available for members to rent. The Sanctuary also offers summer camps and various nature programs for children and adults. There are donated benches scattered throughout the Sanctuary, one perched high on the South Esker Trail with wonderful views of birds on the water below. This bench was donated by Kathy Field and Alan Levites, both now deceased. The bench features an inscribed quote on the back: “It’s the end of all strain, It’s the joy in your heart,” attributed to Antonio Carlos Jobim. Nearby, one can feed chickadees, white breasted nuthatches and other birds by hand. History Thomas Emerson Proctor (1873–1949), a leather fortune heir, lived in the house of Captain Dudley Bradstreet (1765–1833) (currently the Audubon Visitor Center). He owned large pieces of land in Topsfield and other estates in the area. Sources disagree about whether the sanctuary was bequeathed to the Massachusetts Audubon Society in Proctor's will or purchased by Mass Audubon using funds bequeathed by Annie Brown. The sanctuary was originally named the "Proctor Wildlife Sanctuary and Annie H. Brown Reservation". References External links Ipswich River Wildlife Sanctuary - Mass Audubon
Goshen Town Hall

Goshen Town Hall is the historic civic heart of the town of Goshen, Massachusetts. Located at 42 Main Street in the village center, it is a fine example of Classical Revival architecture, built out of locally quarried fieldstone. The building, which now houses a meeting space and the town library, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2018. Description and history Goshen Town Hall is located in the town's main village center on the east side of Main Street (Massachusetts Route 9) at its junction with East Street. It is a two-story masonry building, with a gabled roof. The front facade is dominated by four paired sets of round Tuscan columns, set beneath an entablature. and an eyebrow window in the stone wall behind. The main entrance is in the central bay, accessed by a broad series of steps. The building appears to be only one story in height, because the first floor is actually partially below grade. The interior is arranged with an auditorium on the lower level, and a kitchen, dining room, and the library on the upper level. Prior to construction of this building, Goshen held its town meetings in a variety of places, most recently in a local hotel (no longer standing) across the street from this building. This building was designed by William J. Howes, and completed in 1911. One of the largest donors to its construction was the will of John James, and it was named in his honor. It was the first permanent home for the town library, which had existed in some form since the late 18th century. The building has also fulfilled another objective in its construction, serving as a major meeting for local civic and social events.
