  • 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.

    Resource Management Planning Program

    Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation Bureau of Planning and Resource Protection Resource Management Planning Program RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PLAN Middlesex Fells Planning Unit Middlesex Fells Planning Unit RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PLAN 2011 Deval L. Patrick, Governor Timothy P. Murray, Lt. Governor Richard K. Sullivan Jr., Secretary Edward M. Lambert Jr., Commissioner Dear Friends, Supporters, Users and Stakeholders of the DCR Middlesex Fells Reservation; I am please to introduce you to this draft Resource Management Plan (RMP) for the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation’s Middlesex Fells Reservation. RMPs provide guidelines for management of properties under the stewardship of the Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR). They are intended to be working documents for setting priorities, enabling the DCR to adapt to changing fiscal, social and environmental conditions. The planning process provides a forum for communication and cooperation with park visitors and the surrounding communities to ensure transparency in the DCR’s stewardship efforts. For more than a century, the Middlesex Fells Reservation has provided visitors a natural oasis in the midst of an urbanized landscape, and an opportunity for visitors to connect with nature. The reservation offers a variety of nature-based recreation activities that are special to the residents of metropolitan Boston and beyond. It is home to ten rare plants and animals, uncommon natural communities, and cultural and historic resources that live as a testament to our agrarian and industrial past. Generations of users have traversed its trails, viewed the Boston skyline from atop its rocky hills, and enjoyed the sound of birdsong echoing through the forest. This RMP strives to balance recreational use and demand with the protection natural and cultural resources at the DCR Middlesex Fells so that these experiences, and others, are available for the generations to come.

    Massachusetts Department of Environmental Management Saugus River Water Budget and Instream Flow Study Prepared By: Gomez and Sullivan Engineers and Environmental Scientists 55 North Stark Highway Weare, NH 03281 Final Report, June 2002 Executive Summary Background The Executive Office of Environmental Affairs Watershed Initiative North Coastal Basin Team commissioned a study to evaluate the relationship between streamflow regulation in the Saugus River and aquatic habitat needs. The Saugus River is a small coastal stream located north of Boston, MA. The watershed is approximately 23.3 square miles. The Saugus River is located in an urban area and has been impacted by human activities for over 300 years. Several public water supply sources are located in the Saugus River Basin. Most of the water removed from the river directly, or indirectly from groundwater sources and ponds does not return to the basin, rather it is discharged out of basin to wastewater treatment facilities. In addition, development has altered wetlands, culverted the river beneath major roads, and placed barriers such as dams across the river. Surface water features in the watershed are manipulated for flood control. The magnitude and timing of river flow has been altered as a result of these human activities. Despite its location in a heavily developed urban area, large tracts of open space remain along the river corridor, including golf courses, state reservations, a national park, and vast areas of protected wetlands. Available data suggest the river water quality is suitable to maintain a warm-water fishery and an inspection shows that fish passage is available along the approximately five river miles from the fresh-water limit near the Saugus Ironworks to the Lynn Water and Sewer Commission Diversion Dam1 at the Sheraton golf course in Wakefield.
