Old Town Hall, Deerfield (1842)
Deerfield’s Old Town Hall was built in 1842. The columned front portico was added in 1925. It served as Town Hall until 1955 and housed the town library until the 1990s. Today it is owned by the Pocumtuck Valley Memorial Association. As part of the Acropolis Project, the former Town Hall will become a Museum of American Democracy.
The Deerfield Old Town Hall looks very promising. I plan to visit it in June as I am doing research for a new book titled American Doors. I will also be photographing doors in Historic Deerfield.
This will be my third trip, and I am looking forward to it.
