Current Projects

Due to the high level of interest in the HLI program from communities in the Connecticut River Valley, DCR is pleased to announce that it is planning a second round of HLI work in this region!  Working with the Franklin Regional Council of Governments (FRCOG), the Pioneer Valley Planning Commission (PVPC) and the Highland Communities Initiative (HCI), DCR is now accepting applications for participation.  


We invite you to attend an informational workshop to learn how your community can participate in the Heritage Landscape Inventory Program’s Connecticut River Valley Reconnaissance Survey. 

The workshop will be held twice:

  • Friday, June 19th, 9am to 10:30am at the Williamsburg Grange Hall, 10 Main St, Williamsburg, MA.

  • Wednesday, June 24th, 5:30pm to 7pm at the Sunderland Town Offices, 12 School St, Sunderland, MA.

 

Please RSVP to DCR Preservation Planner Jessica Rowcroft at 617-626-1380 or jessica.rowcroft@state.ma.us by June 15th, if you plan to attend either workshop.
