We've used Josh Craine and Daedalus on monument restoration projects, and found them to be excellent.

Joshua Craine of Daedalus, Ins will be visiting Abington Ma to assess the Arch and Bridge located on Island Grove Park which was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002. The arch is in disrepair as is the bridge and may need extensive structural restoration. The Abington Historical Commission was not made notice that this assessment was to be conducted until today..Our concern is that Mr. Craine qualifications may not meet prodigal for conducting a structural assessment required for a national site and preservation. Hence the AHC pose questions " has any community used the consultant services of the Daedalus, Inc and is this company approved by the MHC? There is a strong grass root movement in the private sector of Abington to have the Arch restored by 2012 for the Towns 300 Birthday. The AHC fears such a rush..

Thanks for any guidance

Robyn B Fernald
Chair of the Abington Historical Commission
