A school building built in 1912 in Bridgewater is now a home to 57 households.
The McElwain School Apartments officially opened Tuesday in the former elementary school building, which had previously been vacant since 1994. In addition to preserving the historic building, however, the developers were able to build an additional, brand-new apartment building on the property, allowing the town to add 51 income-restricted units to its housing stock.
