The Emery Grover Building is a historic structure at 1330 Highland Avenue in downtown Needham, Massachusetts. It currently houses administration offices for the Needham Public Schools, including the office of Daniel E. Gutekanst, Superintendent of Schools.〔(Needham Public Schools official website: Superintendent's Office )〕 Built in 1898 in the Italian Renaissance Revival architectural style from a design by Whitman & Hood, the symmetrical tan brick building features an upper arcade of six Georgian Revival windows, an arched center entrance stoop flanked by multi-paned Diocletian windows, arched wings, and a curved pediment dormer crown sporting the Needham Public Schools seal. The Emery Grover Building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.〔(Go Historic: Emery Grover Building, Needham )〕 In 2010, the Boston architectural firm of Bargmann Hendrie + Archetype Inc. conducted a feasibility study for the building's restoration and renovation as a downtown senior center. The firm estimated the rehabilitation cost at $8.6 million, $2.5 million of which could come from the Community Preservation Act.〔("Emery Grover Feasibility Study Online," Needham Patch )〕〔("Needham Senior Center: architect says Emery Grover problems 'solvable'," WickedLocal.com, Aug. 18, 2010 )〕 ==See also== *National Register of Historic Places listings in Norfolk County, Massachusetts 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Emery Grover Building」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
