Description

Article about the history of the dwelling that was locally known as the "Doctors' House" on Amity Street in reference to the succession of doctors who had lived and practiced there over the years. A number of doctors are described, particularly Dr. Timothy J. Gridley, and Dr. Nathaniel Smith, the first doctor to practice in Amherst.

The house was demolished shortly after the Pariseau Block was taken down. The Jones Library and the First National Bank of Amherst were constructed on the site.
