Additional Details:
| In 1839 Rev. Cyrus Pierce gathered three pupils to found the first Normal School in the United States in this building in Lexington, Massachusetts. As the school grew it moved to West Newton in 1844, then to its present site at Framingham in 1853 where it is now known as Framingham State College. This building was originally erected in 1822 for the Lexington Academy, and is now the Masonic Temple. |
