The Arlington Coal & Lumber Company building is a historic commercial and civic building at 41 Park Avenue in Arlington, Massachusetts. The distinctive Gothic Revival wood frame structure was built c. 1875, and has seen a variety of uses. Its upper floor was used as a meeting space, and was where political meetings, religious services, and social events took place, along with civic activities such as theater productions, dance classes, and fraternal society meetings. The first floor has predominantly been used for commercial purposes, although the building did for a time house a branch of the local public library.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]
