The Massachusetts Historic Curatorship Program is a leasing program under the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) that promotes private investment in historic, public properties that are currently empty and in various states of disrepair. [1] Through the Program, a curator is selected to restore and maintain one of the Program's properties in a “work for credit” exchange system. A curator is chosen through an open application process that can be found on the DCR's website. Average lease terms range from twenty to thirty years. As of 2021, twenty-two of the Program's properties were under agreement. [2] The Program includes residential, commercial and institutional properties that are significant to the history of the Commonwealth. [3]
