Horticultural Hall (Boston, 1865)

"[4] In the 1880s: "the ground floor [was] occupied by stores; the second story by the Library Room of the society and a hall for the weekly exhibitions; and the upper story by a large and elegant hall used ... at the annual and other important exhibitions.

The society's library, comprising over 4,000 volumes, [was] the most valuable collection of horticultural works in the United States.

[6] After internal debate the society sold Horticultural Hall in 1900 and leased space there for some months thereafter.

[11] At the time, Milmore's architectural statues were removed to the home of society president Albert C. Burrage (later the Glen Urquhart School) in Beverly, Massachusetts.

In the mid-1990s the society restored Milmore's statues (only torsos survived) and installed them in their new headquarters in Wellesley, Massachusetts.
