Lafayette Sabin Foster was a U.S. senator and judge on the Connecticut Supreme Court. His Italianate-style house, built in the 1850s on Broadway in Norwich, was acquired in 1953 by the Norwich Free Academy. It housed the Norton-Peck Library until the library collection was later moved to another building. The Lafayette Foster House is now part of the NFA’s Latham Science and Information Center, which was connected to it.
