Welcome to the Brookline Historical Society
 The Brookline Historical Society is a non-profit community organization dedicated to the preservation and interpretation of Brookline's diverse history. The society's headquarters are located in the heart of Coolidge Corner at the Edward Devotion House, one of Brookline's oldest colonial period structures. The Society also maintains the circa 1780 Widow Harris House as well as the Putterham School located in Larz Anderson Park. Our membership program is active and volunteers are welcome.
This photo of Boylston St. in Brookline Village was taken in 1937. We invite you to browse our growing online collection of over 275 historic photos, almost 200 glass slide images, 100+ Brookline postcards, atlases and more. |
