This was also known as GAR Hall (Grand Army of the Republic) It was on the lower end of Elm Street on the south side.
The GAR hall was and still is on Pearl Street. It looks today much as it does in this picture. It is also known as the Bull Mansion and is on Preservations Worcester's list of most endangered properties.

Found the following info at a GAR listing site (02/14/2003): George H. Ward Post 10, built in 1912 Post 10 is a beautiful stone structure in downtown Worcester. It is located about 1/2 block from main business street. No regular hours. A Civil War Roundtable meets in Grand Hall on a regular basis. This is another fine post building and contains many portraits, relics, badges and flags of local regiments. Looks like a great place to visit when in Worcester!
I tried to find this building after visiting this site last year with no luck! Did hear it is not currently opened to the public but would like to see the marble tables of the GAR members inside. Particularly, since this is the Post that Col. Fergus Anzle Easton was a member of.

The G.A.R. Hall has been sold. However, the tablets made of bronze still remain inside the Grand Hall. As for the artifacts, some are on display at the National Guard Museum and at the Worcester Historical Society. I urge anyone who wants to see the artifacts to visit both museums.

I believe this building was bought for next to nothing and turned into an Italian rest.which went belly up after one year.The building is still there and is one of the most beautiful buildings in city.I did a plumbing job years ago when they were converting to rest.it is really neat inside.does anyone have old pictures of Burncoat area.Greendale ETC.
