Goals:

The goal of the current multi-phase project is to preserve Newton’s historically significant mid-twentieth century resources by completing new historic inventory forms that will allow for a more complete understanding of the individual structures and neighborhoods constructed during this period. Newton has over 3,200 structures built between 1940 and 1975 yet to be surveyed, including commercial and institutional structures which warrant recognition and preservation. This survey will provide the City with much needed information to help it better implement its existing preservation tools and strategies to preserve, rehabilitate, and restore mid-century structures for future generations.
