Dear Ms. Marsh Dieckmann:
I am pleased to inform you that the above referenced property has been
listed on the National Register of Historic Places. As you may know, the
National Register is the nation' s official list of properties worthy of
preservation. Listing on the National Register recognizes the importance of
these properties to the history of our country and provides them with a
measure of protection. In addition, owners of income producing properties
may qualify for federal income tax benefits. Properties owned by
municipalities and not-for-profit organizations are eligible to apply for
state historic preservation matching grants.
If you would like more information about any of these programs, please
write to the Historic Preservation Field Services Bureau or call us at (518)
237-8643. Field Services Bureau staff maintains a continuing interest in
all registered properties and will be happy to answer any questions you may
have.
Sincerely,
Ruth L. Pierpont
Director
