Survey:  Historic Buildings in Rhode Island: Capital Needs Assessment.  Deadline extended until February 29th!
Thank you for helping Preserve Rhode Island accumulate data regarding the need for capital funds to repair Rhode Island's historic buildings and structures.  Preserve Rhode Island is considering spearheading a campaign to reinstate the State Preservation Grant Program administered by the Rhode Island Historical Preservation & Heritage Commission.  If you are the owner/manager of an historic property that is open to the public and is owned by a municipality, the State of Rhode Island, or a private non-profit organization (sorry, not buildings in current church or school use), please take this 10 minute survey!  Please complete a separate survey for each separate historic building.  Deadline Extended until February 29th!!!
