GENERAL INFORMATION. The Grand Lodge of Masons of Massachusetts commissioned this piece from Woody Baston to miniature of a well-known (and unused) water tower on the grounds of the Masonic Home in Charlton, Massachusetts. It was issued to commemorate the 75th anniversary of this structure, originally built in 1900 to provide water and fire protection for the Overlook Hotel in Charlton. This imposing structure is 80 feet high with a base that is 20 feet square. The Masonic Home is maintained for retired Masons and their wives.
