The Bradford Smith Building was a historic building at 1927–1941 Purchase Street in New Bedford, Massachusetts. It was a -story wood-frame structure, with a double-gabled roof and a stone-and-brick foundation. It was built in 1887 by Bradford Smith, a retired employee of the Taunton-New Bedford Copper Company, and housed retail space on the first floor and apartments above.[1]
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984, and was included in the Acushnet Heights Historic District in 1989. It underwent a certified rehabilitation for use as senior housing in 1985.[1] It has since been demolished.[2]
