Last Call to Celebrate Registry of Deeds Building Rededication and Publication of History Booklet
Register of Deeds William P. O'Donnell today reminded members of the public to mark their calendar for the date of Wednesday, October 2, 2019. On that date, the Norfolk County Registry of Deeds will celebrate a rededication of its historic 116 year old building located at 649 High Street, Dedham, MA. The event, which will be held from 4:30 PM to 6:30 PM, will be free of charge and include light refreshments.
In addition to the building rededication, the event will celebrate the publication of the second edition of the Registry's Notable Land Records of famous and influential people who have lived in Norfolk County. "The booklet," noted O'Donnell, "will honor an individual from each of the 28 communities comprising Norfolk County. These individuals include one of the greatest American composers of modern time, another was a six-time Olympic gold medalist and another was the chief-of-staff to a United States President." "Furthermore," stated O'Donnell, "there will be an exhibit of these 28 land records and more throughout the Registry's renovated Great Hall."
Expanding on the significance of the rededication event, Register O'Donnell noted, "The Norfolk County Registry of Deeds building, built in 1903, recently underwent extensive renovations and repairs. The improvements included repairs to the granite outside edifice, a new roof, a new boiler, repaired ceilings and moldings, new wiring, more research space as well as interior painting. This building serves as a critical hub to the Norfolk County real estate market serving as a central location for the housing and recording of over 8 million land documents. The recent renovations will allow Registry of Deeds staff to better serve the public and act on its core mission of recording and maintaining Norfolk County land documents in a secure, accurate and accessible manner."
The open house rededication event, which again is scheduled for October 2nd, 4:30PM to 6:30PM, will be held at the Norfolk County Registry of Deeds building located at 649 High Street, Dedham, MA. Admission is free. Light refreshments will be served. For additional information about the event, please contact ksirois@norfolkdeeds.org or call the Registry at (781) 461-6116.
