Langmaid Terrace

Langmaid Terrace is a residential complex in Winter Hill featuring multiple roof lines, gables, and towers of varying heights that project from a mansard roof with stepped brick facing. The building's external composition creates a complex visual appearance that distinguishes it within the neighborhood.

The building was constructed in 1891 by the heirs of Samuel P. Langmaid and designed by Boston architect J. Pickering Putnam. It received National Register status in 1989, recognizing its role in regional architectural history.

The end unit at 365 Broadway served as a residence for a notable historical figure between 1988 and 1991 while he attended Harvard Law School. This personal connection has given the place a significance in the neighborhood's memory.

The complex is located in Winter Hill and is best explored on foot to fully appreciate its varying roof lines and architectural details from different angles. A granite marker in the front garden area provides a good stopping point and vantage for viewing the building.

The end unit was occupied between 1988 and 1991 by someone who later became a prominent figure, giving the building an unexpected historical significance. A granite marker now commemorates this period in the residence's story.
