The John M. Peck House is a historic house at 27 Liberty Street in Waltham, Massachusetts. The 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame house was built in 1843 and sold to John Peck, a local hatter and politician. When it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989, its well-preserved Greek Revival styling was highlighted. This principally survives in the treatment of the main entry, with a corniced entablature and pilasters. Peck lived in the house just two years, selling it to Phineas Upham, who owned a dry goods business on Main Street. A later owner was Charles Fogg, a major Waltham landowner who probably rented the house out.

The old Waltham High School (located at 55 School Street) was constructed in 1902. Designed by Samuel Patch and Robert Glancey, it follows the local contemporary style of Romanesque and Classical Revival architecture. Expanded in the 1920s, the building eventually fell out of favor and was replaced with the current Waltham High School at a different location in 1969. It was used as the Central Junior High School in the 1970s and 1980s. The old Waltham High became defunct by the 1990s and sat empty for many years. The building was ultimately reoccupied; the additions constructed in the 1920s were removed, restoring the school to its 1902 appearance, and a modern addition was added directly behind the old building, which left the historical structure as the façade. The new construct, known now as John W. McDevitt Middle School (named for a former superintendent), entered service in 2003.The old Waltham High building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.
