From the President,

Often times in life, the ups can only be appreciated by living thedowns. So too is this relevant in preservation, the juxtaposed upsand downs, highs and lows, successes and defeats. The lows: theloss of Immaculate Conception Church in Holyoke, a 2003 TenEndangered after a long fought battle to avoid demolition. Thehighs: the Granite Building in Milford, a 2002 Ten Endangered

gets relocated and reborn as the new offices for Consigli Construc-tion Company. As preservationists we can revel in the highs, butwe must also learn to take the lows, find the proverbial silver liningand learn from the whole experience.

But as the dog days of summer are upon us, good feelings pre-vail. Summertime at Preservation Massachusetts is a time for us tocatch up on projects, begin our Ten Most Endangered Program, goon site visits and make connections through our ongoing advocacyoutreach. Our summer got off to a great start with a tremendouslysuccessful Annual Awards Dinner on May 11th. In early June ourState Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit cap was raised to $50 mil-lion annually, retroactive back to January 2005. This was a phe-nomenal success for Preservation Massachusetts and countlessprojects and communities across the state. This tax credit has trulymade the impossible, possible.

As you can see in our Statewide Treks section of this newsletter,we have been traveling and speaking in numerous venues in andaround the state. We look forward to getting out on the road andmeeting with our preservation partners, seeing ongoing projectsand finding how our organization can be of assistance as thestatewide advocacy organization.

As we plan for the Fall and the close of our fiscal year, I wouldlike to thank all of those committed and valued members of Preser-vation Massachusetts for their continued generosity and support. Ialso ask anyone who has not renewed to please consider yourmembership the key to ensuring that our great programming willbe here next summer and beyond, ready to serve you.

So as the summer continues, we look to the highs to keep ourenergy and motivation up! Best Summer Wishes to All!

roller coasters to carousels, because everyone lovesan amusement park.

Portsmouth, NH: National Trust Regional MeetingThe opportunity to join not only our state col-leagues, but our regional partners as well is always agreat experience. This three day meeting allowedus to listen to and discuss common issues in abroader context and learn what our regional part-ners are working on. Our state tax credit was apopular item and is serving as an inspiration to

other states pursuing their own tax credits.

Nantucket: Preservation MonthPreservation Massachusetts was called upon to givea statewide perspective keynote speech at a recep-tion to launch the beginning of Preservation Monthon Nantucket!

West Springfield: Eastern States Exposition,The Big EWith the popularity of our Historic AmusementPark speech, we were asked to give our AmusementPark presentation at the Annual Board meeting forthe Eastern States Exposition, with a focus on coun-try fairs. Over 180 members from the six NewEngland States gathered to hear fun recollections

and remember interesting history. Worcester: Preservation WorcestersAnnual Meeting

At beautifully restored Tuckerman Hall, we listenedto the achievements and applauded the great workof our colleagues at Preservation Worcester. SteveThomas, of This Old House fame gave a wonder-ful keynote about his interesting travels and currentwork with the History Channel.

Salem: Historic Salem Annual Meeting and Awards Another chance to recognize the work of a preser-vation colleague! Jim Igoe co-presented HSIsawards with Dr. Kimberly Alexander in recognitionof numerous projects and individuals in Salem.Prior to the meeting, Preservation Massachusettswas treated to a walking tour of some recent devel-opment sites and issues.

One of the more enjoyable aspects of being a statewide organization is the opportunity to travel our greatstate and visit with our preservation partners in their local communities. This is a wonderful opportunity to

see first hand the hard work many of our partners are undertaking. Whether it is a keynote speech or anannual meeting, a summertime preservation trek is always worth the ride!

We welcome the opportunity to get into the field and really see preservation in action! Look for contin-ued travels and encounters in our next issues!



On June 16th, Preservation Massachusettswas saddened to learn of the sudden death of Bob Kuehn, longtime Board Member and for-mer President of this organization. Originallyfrom Minneapolis, Minnesota, he completedhis undergraduate and graduate studies at YaleUniversity, in Architecture and Urban Studies.He was also a Fulbright Scholar at the Universi-ty of London.

Throughout his career, Bob was deeply com-mitted to affordable housing, historic preserva-tion and the arts. As founder and President of Keen Development Corporation, he developedmore than 3,000 mixed-income homes over thepast twenty five years, received numerousawards for his preservation work and helpedsecure permanent live/work space for many

Boston artists. Some of his preservation proj-ects with Preservation Massachusetts (thencalled Historic Massachusetts, Inc.) includedthe Chelsea Post Office in Chelsea and the Wal-ter Baker Lofts in Dorchester.

At the time of his death, Bob was serving asPresident of Citizens Housing and Planning

Association (CHAPA), a Massachusetts Advisorto the National Trust for Historic Preservation,an extremely dedicated member of the Com-munity Preservation Coalition and of course, aDirector of Preservation Massachusetts.

Bob Kuehn touched hundreds of livesthrough his life and work and will be remem-bered for his intelligence, wisdom and his abili-ty to embrace a challenge. He will be deeplymissed by all who knew him.

The Massachusetts Preservation CoalitionS u m m e r U p d a t e

It comes as no surprise that theState Historic Rehabilitation TaxCredit has been the primary focus forthe Coalition for the past four years.The program has provided a great

incentive to and lure for those lookingto undertake preservation projectsacross the state. Yet there are manymore issues and opportunities for theCoalition to undertake and expandupon.

A Residential Tax Credit: Therewas a residential tax credit componentincluded with the original 2003 legis-lation that was omitted in order topass the commercial credit. Now thatthe commercial credit has been up andrunning for over two years, the Coali-tion has begun researching various res-idential tax credit programs in statessuch as Maryland, Rhode Island, Con-necticut and Virginia. In June, Brad

Schide, Field Service Officer for theConnecticut Trust for Historic Preser-vation met with the Coalition to dis-cuss their homeowner credit. InSeptember, Ted Saunderson, Deputy

SHPO from Rhode Island will discussRhode Islands residential credit. It isan interesting opportunity for furtherthought and research.

Religious Properties Subcommit-tee: With the church dispositionsongoing and no dialogue with the

Archdiocese, the Subcommitteerecently met to discuss future options.The group has decided to take on amore statewide focus on church clos-ings, as the Springfield Diocese is nowundertaking dispositions as well.Recent final drafts of an MHC surveyof historic properties within theBoston Archdiocese offer valuableinformation about the numerous his-

toric properties threatened with clo-sure.

Reaching out for partnerships: TheCoalition continually reaches out tofind new partners and alliances for the

Preservation Community. In April,Marc Draisen of MAPC spoke abouthis organizations work and role in theCommonwealth. It is important forthe Coalition to recognize the impor-tance of partnerships that can help topromote historic preservation acrossthe State. We keep updated on cur-rent issues and events with all of ourCoalition members

Our Coalition subcommittees willcontinue to meet throughout the sum-mer. If there is an issue that should bebrought to the Coalitions attention,please contact Preservation Massachu-setts at 617-723-3383.

Listed in 2002 as one of Massachusetts Ten Most EndangeredResources, the Granite School in Milford now has a new lease onlife. In 2004 Consigli Construction Company, Inc. took interestin this local landmark and undertook the task of dismantling thebuilding block by block and relocating it to a nearby plot of land.The building was re-assembled, restored and is now the corpo-rate headquarters for Consigli, a Milford based 100 year familyowned business!

The Granite Building was constructed in 1896 as a grammarschool for St. Marys Church and is made out of local pink Mil-ford granite. The building was ravaged by fire in 1985 and satvacant for nearly 20 years until Consigli undertook its restora-

tion. PreservationMassachusettsapplauds ConsigliConstructionCompany for thesuccess of theGranite Buildingand their constantcommitment tohistoric preserva-tion in Massachu-setts!

Requiem:Immaculate Conception Church

In late May and early June, the Spring-field Diocese began the long-feared demo-lition of Immaculate Conception Churchin Holyoke. Named to Preservation Mass-achusetts Ten Most Endangered in 2003,

this century French-Gothic church servedas a parish for French-Canadian immi-grants in Holyoke when it was built in1927. It was modeled after New YorkCitys renowned Church of St. VincentFerrer, with a capacity for 1,100 parish-ioners. As attendance dwindled and ethnicmakeup of the church changed, the Dio-cese of Springfield sought to demolish thechurch to build a smaller church on thesame site, citing high maintenance andrestoration costs.

Efforts from local citizens in Holyoke,the Immaculate Conception PreservationTrust, the Northeast Office of the National

Trust for Historic Preservation and Preservation Massachusetts were hard fought, butit was not to be. The demolition of this landmark church was captured in photo-graphs by Mary Anne OConnor, http://www.pbase.com/maryanne16/immacconc.

As Diocese face parish closures and religious property dispositions, we hope that thefate of Immaculate will not set the standard for what is to come as we work to pro-mote the historic and community significance of many religious properties in Massa-chusetts.

The State Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit,designed to spur the rehabilitation of historicbuildings in Massachusetts received a substan-tial boost from the Legislature on June 15 aslawmakers voted to expand the program'sfunding to $50 million per year retroactively to2005, and to extend the two year-old programthrough 2010.

Preservationists and real estate leaders imme-diately hailed the decision of the joint House-Senate conference committee as a vote of confidence in the early success of the Massa-chusetts Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit pro-gram.

The program provides a tax credit of up to20 percent of renovation costs as an incentivefor private developers to turn older, historicallysignificant buildings - many of them in down-town areas - into income-producing, tax-gener-ating properties such as apartments and offices.

"Many of these buildings were sitting vacantfor years because the numbers to renovate themjust didn't make sense," said Jim Igoe, presidentof Preservation Massachusetts, the nonprofitadvocacy group that proposed the legislation toincrease the program's funding.

"The historic tax credit fills a critical gap infinancing so that developers can start returningthese buildings to service. This, in turn, hasthe potential to bring whole city sections backto life."

The tax credit was launched two years ago asa five-year pilot program under a measuredrafted by Preservation Massachusetts andother advocacy groups and passed by the Legis-

lature in 2003. An original funding cap of $10 million per

year to disperse among approved projects wasraised to $15 million by legislators last yearwhen a high volume of applications for thecredit quickly outstripped available funds.

In the most recent funding round, the Massa-chusetts Historic Commission, which adminis-ters the program, is considering requests for anestimated $80 million in tax credits from 28eligible projects in cities including Lowell,Lawrence, Pittsfield, Holyoke, Worcester andNew Bedford.

Combined, the projects represent an estimat-ed $611 million in total investment.

"This program provides economic stimulus inits truest sense," said Larry Curtis, Chairman of the Greater Boston Real Estate Board. Curtisis Managing Partner of Winn Development,which has used the credit to help finance proj-ects in Boston and Lowell.

"When you consider the number of jobs thatare generated, the income produced and thestate and local taxes collected from the tenantsof these rehabilitated buildings, it adds up to bea wise investment and a revenue-positive returnfor taxpayers," he said.

"We thank Senator Jack Hart and SenatePresident Robert Travaglini, and RepresentativeDan Bosley and House Speaker Sal Di Masi fortheir leadership on this important componentof the economic stimulus package," added Igoe.

Up to $300 million in credits through 2010 will stimulate private investment in state's urban areas, preservationists say

50 MillionDollar Victory!
