Frost, Briggs & Chamberlain, later Frost & Chamberlain and Frost, Chamberlain & Edwards, was an early 20th century architectural firm out of Worcester, Massachusetts. In its various forms, it was composed of Howard Frost, Lucius W. Briggs, C. Leslie Chamberlain, and Lester B. Edwards. It was the city's most prominent firm during the first three decades of the century. Frost, Briggs & Chamberlain was formed in 1899, and lasted until 1912, when Briggs left to form his own practice. The firm of Frost & Chamberlain lasted until 1923, when Edwards was promoted to partner, the new name being Frost, Chamberlain & Edwards. ==Works== As Frost, Briggs & Chamberlain (1899-1912) * Forbush Memorial Library, 118 Main St., Westminster, Massachusetts (1901) - Front gable has been altered.〔Page 131, The Public Library Bulletin (September, 1901)〕 * Grafton High School, 17 Worcester Street, Grafton, Massachusetts (1901) - Has been demolished.〔Page 94 & etc., Reports of the Town Officers of the Town of Grafton for the Year Ending February 1st, 1902 (1902)〕 * South High School, 14 Richards St., Worcester, Massachusetts (1901)〔Page 52, Report of the Chief of the Massachusetts District Police for 1901 (1902)〕 * Clubhouse, Tatnuck Country Club, 1222 Pleasant St., Worcester, Massachusetts (1902)〔http://mhc-macris.net/Details.aspx?MhcId=WOR.276〕 * University Library, Clark University, Worcester, Massachusetts (1902) - Currently known as the Jefferson Academic Center.〔Page 79, Publications of the Clark University Library, Vol. 1 (Ed.
