http://www.northboromarealestate.com Tour Northborough, MA neighborhoods, condominium developments, subdivisions, schools, landmarks, recreational areas, and town offices.

Northborough, Massachusetts was originally part of the Town of Marlborough, then Westborough. It became a separate town with the right of representation at the Great and General Court of Boston in 1775.

Early civic activity in Northborough revolved around its churches, then known as “meeting houses”. Northborough’s first meeting house was built on land given by Captain James Eager in 1776; the First Congregational Unitarian Church stands in its place today. The legally elected officers of the town were the church “tithing men” and town ministers were the arbiters of both town and family life. Though Northborough has grown and changed considerably in the nearly 250 years since its founding, a significant historical district at the town center provides a living reminder of the community’s colonial past.

Today, Northborough operates under its own home rule charter. The town is governed by a five-member select board and the town meeting membership of registered voters. Though primarily residential in nature today, Northborough also hosts a burgeoning research and development-oriented industrial park. For other town tours visit http://www.virtualhomes.com .
