[MassHistPres] Stiletto Heel marks on historic wood floor

[Matt Ottinger]

Hello everyone,

I work at a historic building and we, like so many other places, rent our space for events (weddings, receptions, lectures, etc.). After an event last weekend we found the historic wood floor
covered in marks from stiletto heels. The divots range from minor to fairly deep in the wood. An suggestions as to what we can/should do?
