The Gov. John Butler Smith House, also now known as the Community Building, is a historic house at 62 School Street in Hillsborough, New Hampshire. The large Queen Anne Victorian is significant as one of few known residential works of a prolific New Hampshire architect, William M. Butterfield, and as the home of John Butler Smith, a principal owner of the local Contoocook Mills, who also served as Governor of New Hampshire 1893-95. This house began as a two-story Italianate structure built in 1866, which was extended with a mansard roof in 1885. Smith hired Butterfield to make major modifications in 1892, rotating the 1866 house and moving it back on the lot, and then adding the front section of the house, more than doubling its size. The interior, like the exterior, is lavishly appointed with woodwork. The property also includes a carriage house built in 1892. Smith's heirs donated the building to the town of Hillsborough, which has converted into town offices, library, and a community meeting space.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=NHRP nomination for Gov.
