If the identification holds, it shares the castle’s own gesture — a front built to read as a fortress.
Attributed. This entry rests on secondary accounts not yet checked against original records; see “Still to check.”
Near the Greater Lowell YMCA on Thorndike Street stands a building whose front reads as a castle. It is believed to be the building at 191 Thorndike Street, but that identification has not yet been checked against the state inventory or the city assessor, and its date and architect remain to be established from a period source.
Still to check
- Confirm the address (191 Thorndike Street) against the MACRIS inventory and the city assessor’s record.
- Date and architect from a period source (building permit, atlas, newspaper).
- Photographs from the public street once confirmed.
