Tree that is the Geographical Center of Massachusetts. Rutland, Massachusetts - Geographical Center Tree of Massachusetts

I grew up in this quaint and typical small New England town. But one of the town's claims to fame is that it is the geographic center of the commonwealth. A maple tree enclosed in a small red wooden fence marks the exact center, right on Central Tree Road. The maple tree replaced an older and larger elm tree that died in 1969 (or around then) from Dutch Elm Disease. [Eric Landquist, 02/28/2000]
