General
Thomas W. Sears appears to have taken these images as part of his preparation for a landscape design assignment while he was a student at Harvard. They depict two public spaces in Framingham--the Framingham Centre Common and the Framingham South Common (now known as the Downtown Common)--as well as adjacent buildings. Lantern slide versions of several of these images, as well as additional views (including a plan by Sears)'s plans) are held by the Loeb Library, Graduate School of Design, Harvard University and are also available through the America Memory Project at the Library of Congress.
