Metropolitan District Commission Stable

The Metropolitan District Commission Stable is a historic stable on Hillside Street in Milton, Massachusetts. Built around the turn of the 20th century, it is part of a headquarters complex designed by Stickney & Austin for the Metropolitan Parks Commission (a predecessor to the Metropolitan District Commission or MDC, and today's Department of Conservation and Recreation) when the Blue Hills Reservation was being developed for recreational use. The building is a good example of Shingle style architecture, and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.
