Somerville Journal Building is a historic building at 8-10 Walnut Street in Somerville, Massachusetts.
It was built in 1894 as offices and the printing facility for the Somerville Journal. Administrative and editorial offices were on the first floor. Production and typesetting were on the second floor, and printing presses and equipment were located in the basement. The Somerville Journal vacated the building in approximately the 1950s. For some time after, the building was used as a youth recreation center for the City of Somerville. It has been used as artist studios since the 1970s.
It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.
