[MassHistPres] Greek Revival Town Hall

I am looking for a town in Massachusetts that has a Greek Revival period Town Hall that has been rehabilitated or restored, either for continued use as a town hall or for any other reuse.  I would like to visit it and take photos, or at the least have a photo of it or a scan of a photo that I could use emailed to me if anyone is able.  
The Selectmen in Westminster have placed an article on the warrant for the town meeting on May 3 to demolish our Town Hall now that we have a new one.  (They are all in favor of making this land a park.)  I'm preparing a Power point presentation showing (1) old homes and buildings in Westminster that we have already lost, (2) activities that have taken place in the old Town Hall for more than a century, and (3) other town halls in Massachusetts that have been successfully restored and reused.  I have already been to Townsend and Groton (beautiful) but they're of a different period and I think the impact would be greater if I had a similar style building.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
