The Newton Centre Branch Library, located at 1294 Centre Street in Newton, Massachusetts, is a historic building that now serves as municipal offices. Designed by Newton resident James Ritchie in 1928, the 1 1/2-story brick structure features Tudor Revival architecture with a Colonial Revival segmented arch entry.
Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990, this library building was one of five branch libraries funded by subscriptions from Newton citizens and constructed between 1926 and 1939. A new library facility opened near city hall in 1991, while the original building continues to stand as a testament to the community's commitment to preserving its architectural heritage.
