[MassHistPres] Uses for Historic Structures

[Garrett Laws]

Alex,

You should take a look at DCR's Historic Curatorship program (if you
haven't already) as it creates a really good framework for reuse of a
property. Their program may be a step beyond what you are considering but a
great model to step back from.
