Bellingham Square Historic District is a historic district in Chelsea, Massachusetts roughly bounded by Broadway, Shawmut, Chestnut, and Shurtleff Streets. The district was built largely in 1908, after the Great Chelsea Fire of that year, which leveled nearly half the city. The square is home to the Chelsea Public Library and Bunker Hill Community College. In addition to its main campus in the Charlestown neighborhood of Boston, BHCC operates a campus in the square providing higher education and job training opportunities to residents of Chelsea, Revere, Everett, East Boston, Winthrop and other surrounding communities. BHCC has operated a second campus in Chelsea since 1987. The campus, located in a former post office in historic Bellingham Square, was inaugurated in 1998 after being housed at several temporary sites around the city. The two-story brick structure was originally built in 1910, but had been vacant for a decade before being donated to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The district was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1985. ==See also== *National Register of Historic Places listings in Suffolk County, Massachusetts 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bellingham Square Historic District」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
