| Dial Details | Doctors Hathaway & Draper were opticians and jewelers who operated at the addresses of 120 Boylston Street and 521 Boylston Street Boston, MA. It is unknown when the company moved to North Adams, MA. Hathaway & Draper was listed in The New England Business Directory and Gazetteer in 1889 for jewelry, watches, and plate. It is also unknown what connection Hathaway & Draper holds to the Hathaway Tenement, which is a historic tenement house located in North Adams, Massachusetts. The building served as worker housing units for the 10 mills that operated in the area and was built around 1850. The housing is named for Nathaniel Hathaway, one of the mill proprietors during the times of industrialization in North Adams. |
