Memorial Building Rotunda Skylights Restrored

FRAMINGHAM, MA – Skylights in the lobby of the Memorial Building which houses a Veteran’s Memorial will soon be uncovered as part of a renovation project.

Another project inspired by Framingham Town Owned Building’s Director Jim Egan who found the tar-papered and painted skylights and worked to get the project rolling to restore the hall’s entrance to it’s pre-WWII glory.

The skylights were covered up in 1942 per order of the governor as part of a blackout operation during WWII.
