The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Massachusetts Historical Commission January 10,2011 Dear Reader: Asthe Chairman ofthe Massachusetts Historical Commission, and on behalf of the MHC and its. staff, I am pleased to introduce the 2010 edition of the Massachusetts State Register of Historic Places. The State Register was established in 1982 as a comprehensive listing of the buildings, structures, objects and sites that have received local, state or national designations based on their historical or archaeological significance. Since its establishment, the State Register has grown to include listings for over 60,000 properties in more than 320 cities and towns. The State Register of Historic Places is an important historic preservation planning reference tool. It alerts property owners, planners, and project proponents to the presence of significant historic properties and sites that need to be taken into consideration in both public and private ) undertakings. Researchers should consult additional information on properties listed in the State Register available in the files of the Commission. The staff of the Massachusetts Historical Commission, the state historic preservation office, administers a range of historic preservation programs through its Preservation Planning, Grants, and Technical Services divisions. Please visit the Commission's website at www.sec.state.ma.us/mhc to learn more about recent news, events, available publications, and programs or to search the Massachusetts Cultural Resources Information System (MACRIS) database. If you have any questions about the Commission, or would like to request information, please feel free to contact the Commission at 617727-8470 or via email [email protected].

Downsizing the The Politics Massachusetts of Evasion Mental Health System Richard A. Hogarty For the past three decades the topic of the proper role of state mental hospitals has been vigorously debated as a major public policy issue in Massachusetts. The state has had two runs at hospital closings: the first between 1973 and 1981, when the deinstitutional- ization policy flourished, the second between 1991 and 1993, when the privatization policy was developed.
