Great news!

I received an email today from Barb Raid, architectural historian at Historic York, Inc., who handled our National Register nomination.

Hi, Dawn & Gregg --

I just received word from Carol Lee at the BHP that your property was officially listed in the National Register of Historic Places on May 24, 2006. Congratulations!

Barb

I also found an official notice on the National Park Service web site.

Since our future solvency rested on this decision, this was very good news, indeed.

Carol Lee did a site visit in 2004 and said, "You can have anything you want. if you'll just cut the ivy out of that tree." She was referring to our 200+ year old sycamore, which is now ivy-free.
