This country home of social reformer Robert Treat Paine and his family was created by architect Henry Hobson Richardson and landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted, whose work continues to inspire culturally and environmentally sensitive design today.

In addition to being a National Historic Landmark, the Lyman Estate, also known as "the Vale," is considered to be one of the finest examples of a country estate built in the style of eighteenth-century English naturalistic design in the United States. For his family's residence in 1793, shipping merchant Theodore Lyman commissioned renowned architect Samuel McIntire to design and construct a Federal-style residence. The house was first expanded in the Victorian style in 1882, and then remodeled in the Colonial Revival style in 1917, under the direction of the family. The thirty-seven-acre property includes gardens that have been meticulously preserved as well as historic greenhouses. During a tour of the mansion, which is now a wedding and corporate event venue, you can learn about the history of the Lyman family. One of the building's architectural features is a graceful oval parlor and an elegant ballroom, both of which can be seen in the upcoming film adaptation of Little Women. Pay a visit to the Lyman Estate Greenhouses for stunning plants and knowledgeable advice. Historic New England is adhering to all applicable state, local, and CDC safety regulations for the Waltham location. All employees and visitors are required to wear protective masks. Improved cleaning and disinfection procedures have been implemented. The number of people who can join the tour is limited.

When you attend a private event at the Biltmore with your family, friends, or coworkers, you get to enjoy all of life's greatest hits in one wonderful evening! We can collaborate with you to design a menu based on the Biltmore's trademark appetizers, entrees, sides, and desserts. Within the renowned walls of the Biltmore, there is something very distinctive and unique. As you travel the century-old wood floors to your private Biltmore party room, you are a part of history, from the original stamped tin ceilings to the beautiful wood paneling. You can almost imagine the big parties that have taken place throughout the decades to celebrate life, love of food, and good times. With these excellent places available for your perfect celebration, this local tradition continues today. The Biltmore, which opened in 1914, has a long history as a Newton favorite. It started out selling breakfast and ale to local industrial workers staying the night, and its four-lane bowling alley was a popular hangout for decades. The Biltmore was a secret speakeasy for the upper crust during prohibition, frequently hosting private events for dignitaries, politicians, and celebrities. The Biltmore underwent a stunning refurbishment a century after it first opened, restoring the ancient building's grandeur while providing a more pleasant atmosphere. Much of the original brick façade and interior have survived the test of time, as has the original wood flooring. We maintain the Biltmore's spirit alive today with American food and a rotating variety of local beers and handcrafted cocktails. Something exciting is always happening at the Biltmore. Our events give a traditional restaurant experience a new spin. Come in for Oyster Mondays, Karaoke Fridays, and a whole lot more. We also have a private dining room available, which is ideal for any special occasion. We are excited to share history with you!

The beautiful ballroom, perched atop Strawberry Hill, has enormous windows overlooking our championship golf course and a panoramic view of the Boston cityscape. We'd be delighted to help you plan a memorable occasion! With the value and simplicity of a wedding package plan, the Oakley Country Club, which was founded in 1898, continues its long reputation of great food and service. For retirement parties, employee appreciation dinners, fundraisers, and holiday parties, we are glad to offer a range of menu selections. Showers, baptisms, reunions, and birthday parties are all held in the ballroom. Contact us immediately to start planning your 50-300 person special event. The ballroom at Oakley Country Club can accommodate up to 205 guests and boasts the coveted middle-of-the-room dance floor, giving all of your guests a perfect view of your special day. The appropriate place to start your event is in a separate cocktail area with a view of the Boston skyline and our beautiful golf course. In a devastating fire in 1962, the old Oakley Clubhouse was destroyed. It was replaced by a new clubhouse, which was rebuilt in 1998 to match the original Bulfinch building's lines. The Club's efforts to maintain the charm of a New England rural estate while delivering best-in-class country club accommodations are being bolstered by the 2018-19 clubhouse renovations. The configuration of the course has remained unchanged since the last Ross re-design in 1910. In 2004, the Club hired restoration architects to look over the century-old Ross plans and realign the bunkers and greens to match the Master's layout. Oakley is a landlocked city club. Because our architect's greatest talent was his ability to route fairways, our 85 precious acres allow us an extraordinarily efficient 6,000 yard course!

If you have unique demands, budget concerns, or are arranging several parties, our Private Events concierge team is happy to assist you. The Berkowitz family opened a fish market in Cambridge's Inman Square neighborhood in 1950, giving birth to the Legal Sea Foods brand. Customers were granted "Legal Stamps" (forerunners of S&H green stamps) with their purchases at a related family business adjacent to the market at the time, a grocery store called Legal Cash Market. The name "Legal" became linked with excellence and freshness throughout this time. The first Legal Sea Foods restaurant debuted in 1968, directly across from the fish market. The fish was simply grilled or cooked before being distributed on paper plates at communal picnic tables. The Company's commitment to quality standards, freshness, and the integrity of the entire pier-to-plate process remains unchanged today. By concentrating on people (our employees and guests) and excellence in everything we do, we continue to raise the bar and set the brand apart from the competition. So when we declare, "If it isn't fresh, it isn't Legal!" we're reaffirming a dedication that has kept the brand alive for more than 50 years.
