The R. H. Stearns Building is an 11 story residence building (with shops at ground level) at 140 Tremont Street in Boston. It was built in 1909 for the businessman R. H. Stearns and his company and was the home of the R. H. Stearns department store〔Rossiter, William Sidney, ed., ( ''Days and ways in old Boston'' ), 3rd ed. Boston: R.H. Stearns and Company, 1914.〕 until its demise in 1978. The Stearns store had been in many locations in Boston before finally settling in its new building and headquarters at 140 Tremont Street.〔 Since 1886 Stearns & Co. occupied and leased a re-modeled building on the site of the old Boston Masonic Temple, until it was completely torn down and the new R.H. Stearns building put up in 1908.〔 R. H. Stearns and Company ceased operations on 1978, and the building was converted to 140 studio and one bedroom apartments for older adults and people with disabilities. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places as R. H. Stearns House in 1980.〔 == See also == * National Register of Historic Places listings in northern Boston, 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「R. H.
