Imagine a doorway from the past, opening onto an old garden in bloom, a pristine wilderness, a rushing stream or an ocean view. Standing at the threshold, you hear the fading thunder of a steeplechase, the steady lapping of the ocean or the austere silence of the mountainside. From the cool shade of the past you step forward into the light.

Through the Historic Curatorship Program, anyone can live, work and dream in a historic property with thousands of acres of park land at their doorstep.

(11/16/07) Press Release

DCR announces release the following Requests for Expression of Interest for the reuse, rehabilitation and maintenance of six historic properties under the Historic Curatorship Program.  DCR hopes to gauge the level of interest from responses to these documents.  Please contact the Historic Curatorship Program (HCP.Requests@state.ma.us by the mailing address below, or at 617-626-1361) if you are unable to download the electronic versions of these documents and require a hard copy.  Please read the documents carefully and remember that these documents are not a call for proposals, but a general call for interest.  DCR will evaluate the responses to these documents and determine whether to solicit a more formal and comprehensive Request for Proposals, most likely in the spring of 2008.
