History and architectural features

edit

This three-story brick structure was slated to be erected in 1903 on a triangular plot of land between Boylston Street, Pennsylvania Route 346 (East Washington Street) and Tununguant Creek, which prompted the architect to design the building using a distinctive, clothing iron shape. It was built for Rufus Barrett Stone to house his law offices and his residence.[2]
