History |
The Preston Municipal Building was located in the former Ochs home on King Street. In the early 1960s, the Ochs home was demolished and a new municipal building was constructed on the same site. As of 2016, the building is now the Allan Reuter Centre at 507 King Street East in Cambridge. |
