A state-funded enhancement project at Mount Wachusett, the highest peak in central and eastern Massachusetts, is complete, state officials announced.
The $8.4-million project includes a new, 80-foot-tall fire tower with a public observation deck, increased summit parking and restoration of the mountain’s Harlow Outlook, a historic building located near the top of the mountain.
Construction work was done by E.H. Perkins of Hudson and Construction Dynamics of Fitchburg.
