[MassHistPres] 1. Contractors who dismantle/salvage old houses (Cwkmail at aol.com)

[Marc Cleary]

There was a contractor that did this to the historic Pillar House in Newton.
It was an old restaurant that was moved to Lincoln.  You could probably do a
web search and find out more information.

Here in Shrewsbury, Mass., two early  nineteenth century houses are slated 
for demolition.  
 
We'd like to suggest to the owners that  the houses be dismantled and stored

by a contractor who buys old houses,  dismantles them, and then sells them
for 
eventual reconstruction. 
 
Alternatively, we'd like to suggest  that an architectural salvager be 
allowed to take bits and pieces of these  houses.  
 
Does anyone know of any  contractors who dismantle or salvage old houses?
 
Any suggestions would be much  appreciated.
