Boyd N. Park Building - 1252 Liberty St.

Boyd N. Park opened his furniture and undertaking establishment here in the 1880s. Throughout the next 100 years the ownership changed but the name Park Furniture remained a focal point on Liberty Street until its closing in 1980.

Modernization began taking place in 1937 with new storefronts and more recently established the basement areas for small business enterprises. The regular symmetry and proportions of this Italianate style building add to Franklin's architectural heritage.
