Thomas Crane Library Seal

This symbol can be found on the Thomas Crane Library in Quincy. This particular one is above the Quincy Access TV offices (which is in the Library). There are a few symbols like this on the building.

As you may have guessed by the brick, it is on one of the new sections of the library, and not the part designed by H.H. Richardson.

Thomas Crane Libary, Children's door


Here is a view of the old children's room door at Thomas Crane Library. (For another view of the library, see here.) Now the children's room is in a completely different part of the library and the door is unused. But, it is one of my favorite views of the library.

Thomas Crane Library

This is a view of the Thomas Crane Library (main library). This part of the library was built in 1881 by the architect H. H. Richardson. (Yes, that is a morris dancer in front.)
