3rd floor was added in 1906 in response to the immigration surge of southern Italians to the community
Operated as a school from 1889 until 1979
Building design is a Roman revival design and originally with a Gothic slate roof
*the building sustained substantial damages during the hurricane of 1938 resulting in the roof needing to be replaced, as well as several windows*
In 1980 the building was purchased by Home Theater TV who wanted to demolish the building and build a contemporary office building
New London Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBA) approved this demolition
The community rallied around the Nameaug school property and ultimately saved the building and forced the ZBA to reverse their decision
In 1982 the building was purchased by the Nameaug Group (an investment group) and renovated into what became the Montauk Professional Building which housed lawyers, doctors, and dentists
In 2011 the Montauk Professional Building was sold to CIL and leased to Sound Community Services who will have full ownership of the property in June of 2041
Since assuming ownership of the building Sound Community Services has fully renovated and updated the entire building (with the exception of the masonry & elevator) creating an open and inviting community atmosphere for its employees and the people it serves
