Added {{Lead too short}} tag to article (TW)
I have removed the text "Other" from the architecture parameter of the infobox NRHP template, so that the infobox no longer makes the nonsensical claim that the subject of the current article was designed in the Other architectural style.
Line 1:

The main building of the Cambridge Public Library is an historic [[library]] building at 449 Broadway. It was built in 1888 with land and full construction funding donated by [[Frederick H. Rindge]], a Cambridge native and [[philanthropist]]. Its [[Richardsonian Romanesque]] design was by [[Van Brunt & Howe]]. The building was added to the [[National Register of Historic Places]] in 1982.
