Build Now Spirit Behind Waltham’s Industrial Growth
Waltham’s rapid growth stems from early Board of Trade efforts through the Factory Building Association created in 1910 and the Home Building Association formed in 1912. These bodies, funded by small contributions and bank support, have built factory space and housing, yielding about $400,000 in factory property and 49 plants, with 12 apartments and annual income around $8,500 from the Home Building Association’s projects.
