Something I know you have all been waiting for -- some GOOD news on
preservation in New Jersey: $11 Million in Bond funds awarded to some 30
landmark buildings in the state!
The New Jersey Historic Trust announced the recipients of its latest (and
last, unless a new bond issue appears) round of awards for bricks and mortar
projects in the state. New Jersey leads the nation in support for historic
buildings under this program -- something we all can be proud of!
Here is the complete list. For profiles on the individual sites, look for
them on the NJ Historic Trust's web site: www.state.ny.us/dep/njht.
