context_page_description: North Quincy is a neighborhood of Quincy, Massachusetts. It is separated from the city of Boston by the Neponset River, and borders the Quincy neighborhoods of Squantum, Montclair and Wollaston. It contains the smaller neighborhoods of Atlantic and Norfolk Downs, as well as much of Wollaston Beach.
context_section_description: The public schools serving North Quincy are F. W. Parker Elementary School and Atlantic Middle School.  A second elementary school, Quincy Elementary School on Newbury Avenue, was closed in 1981 following the passage of Proposition 2½ and converted to condominiums; the building was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.
  North Quincy High School, between Hancock and Hunt Streets, is the high school of North Quincy and the surrounding neighborhoods.  It underwent extensive renovation in 1970-72, expanding significantly and requiring the razing of Oliver Street. A since-closed annex was also built on Newbury Avenue.
  After its main building was repossessed by the city for construction purposes, Quincy College moved most of its facilities to Newport Avenue near the subway station.
  A branch of the Thomas Crane Public Library is located on Hancock Street in Norfolk Downs near the MBTA station; a second neighborhood branch on Atlantic Street was also a casualty of Proposition 2½ and closed in 1980.
