Sign says:
"This great structure was first built by Nathaniel Clark in 1872, but burned in the fire of 1874. He immediately rebuilt the same design and added 80 foot wings on each end of the building. Originally, this building held all of Natick's town government offices and town meetings were held in Concert Hall located on the third floor. This richly detailed Victorian Italianate structure is a symbolic and unifying element of Natick's remarkably preserved 19th century character."

When logging a Massachusetts Historic Marker, we ask that you not only describe your visit, but to upload a picture from it.

But a photo of you standing next to the marker or a photograph the subject of the marker - those are examples of possible photographs to upload.
