Historic Structure Report: Historical Data Section, Old City Hall, Lowell National Historical Park, Lowell, Massachusetts. Package No. 105 (Project Type 35), 1826-1890
Old City Hall is significant as the seat of the municipal government of Lowell, the first planned industrial and manufacturing city in the United States, from 1830 to 1893. After Lowell was established as a town in 1826, the structure was built in 1829-30 to serve as the Town House. When Lowell was incorporated as a city in 1836, the building became known as the City Hall. This Historic Structure Report contains the historical data section which provides basic data for the stabilization, preservation, and restoration of the structure to its 1896 appearance. This section will constitute the primary data base for the future interpretation of the site. Although the structural evolution and use of the structure from 1829 to the present has been included in the report, special attention to the post 1895-96 alterations has been emphasized to assist in the restoration.
