  • Cultural Resources Inventory

    Cultural Resources Inventory

    Town of Saugus Historical Commission Town Hall 298 Central Street Saugus, MA 01906 CULTURAL RESOURCES INVENTORY Updated: May 2012 The Town of Saugus contains hundreds of sites and structures having architectural, archeological, or historical significance. At the present time, five properties are listed on the National Register of Historic Places, two of which have been designated as National Historic Landmarks (NHL) by the Secretary of the Interior. National Register Properties: Boardman House (NHL, 10/15/1966) Breakheart Reservation Parkways (8/11/2003) Lynn Fells Parkway (5/9/2003) Saugus Iron Works (NHL, 10/15/1966) Saugus Town Hall (6/20/1985) The Commission completed an Inventory of Cultural and Historical Resources in 1986. This inventory was largely confined to resources that were at least 50 years old, and did not include many additional resources reflecting the growth of the Town since World War II. The results of this inventory have been entered into the Massachusetts Historical Commission’s MACRIS database. With a few exceptions, the inventory forms, along with inventory records created by other federal and state agencies, are available for downloading from the MACRIS site (http://mhc-macris.net/). The following listing is in two parts. The first lists properties included in the MACRIS database, while the second shows those properties which the Commission has identified for potential inclusion in the inventory. This includes both older properties not included in the previous inventory and those which have achieved the 50 year age criteria since the initial survey was done. It should be noted that the list of potential additions will expand as individual properties within areas are inventoried or miscellaneous residential properties are identified as being significant either as architecture or association.

Pathways cut through the terrain, offering a tourist hiker several choices. A new path is always an adventure. The first passage is more a reconnoiter concentrating on direction, orientation, markers and eventual destination. The second pass is leisurely and indulgent allowing time to appreciate the colors, odors, indigenous flora, local fauna, the special essence of the place. Approach a poem like a wooded path with secrets to impart, one reading will reveal her scheme, the second her heart. from Pathways by J.J.

    Commonwealth of Massachusetts Jack Buckley, Director June 16, 2015 Eammon Coughlin, Planner Berkshire Regional Planning Commission 1 Fenn Street, Suite 201 Pittsfield, MA 01201 Re: Open Space Plan; 98-3310 Town of Lee Dear Mr. Coughlin: Thank you for contacting the Natural Heritage and Endangered Species Program (NHESP) regarding the update for the Open Space and Recreation Plan for the Town of Lee. A letter was previously prepared for Lee in 1998 and this serves as an update to that letter. Enclosed is information on the rare species, priority natural communities, vernal pools, and other aspects of biodiversity that we have documented in Lee. The town is encouraged to include this letter, species list, appropriate maps, and the BioMap2 town report in the Open Space and Recreation Plan. Based on the BioMap2 analysis and additional information discussed below, NHESP recommends land protection in the BioMap2 cores or protecting lands adjacent to existing conservation land – or, best, a combination of both when feasible. All of the areas discussed below are important for biodiversity protection in Lee. Land adjacent to the Cold Water Fisheries is also important Enclosed is a list of rare species and natural communities known to occur or have occurred in Lee. This list and the list in BioMap2 differ because this list and discussion include all of the uncommon aspects of biodiversity in Lee that NHESP has documented and BioMap2 focused on occurrences with state-wide significance and included non-MESA listed species of conservation interest from the State Wildlife Action Plan. In addition, the NHESP database is constantly updated and the enclosed list may include species of conservation interest identified in town since BioMap2 was produced in 2010.

    STEINWAY THE INSTRUMENT OF THE IMMORTALS The Enchanted Hour! Who has not known those fragile, mystic interludes when all the world seems good, and hope is bright? They are a real and deepening part of life. And music of all the arts can best evoke such moods. A clear voice singing . some dark and haunting air . these have an unexampled power to stir the heart . Music belongs to every age. It is instinctive in the child. It fires the gayety of youth. In later life it is a constant inspiration and delight. And to all, even the least accomplished, music offers solace, joy, escape . moments of enchantment which nothing can dispel. Music and the Steinway piano . enjoyment of them is not limited by ability or circumstance. Because the Steinway is primarily a piano for the Home . and for that home which must regard any expenditure with care.
