The Armstrong House is a historic house located at 60 Brooklyn Street in North Adams, Massachusetts.

Description and history

It is a two-story wood frame structure, three bays wide, with a low hip roof supported by decorative brackets. Its main entrance portico is also bracketed, with 20th-century columns and balustrade that are sympathetic to its Italianate style. The house was built in 1875, during North Adams' industrial boom time. It was built for W. W. Armstrong, a worker at the Arnold Print Works. It is one of the best-preserved Italianate houses in the area.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on October 25, 1985.[1]
