And the winner is - the Paragon Carousel in Hull.
The Greater Boston Partners in Preservation program announced yesterday (and today) the winner of the popular vote. The Carousel will receive its full grant request of $100,000 to restore its doors and windows, recreating a fitting home for "this seaside gem."
The National Trust for Historic Preservation says not to worry (yet) -
Don’t despair if your favorite project didn't come in first, there is still a chance that your favorite project will be awarded a grant. In the second part of our effort to give away $1 million, our Advisory Committee will be making recommendations on the rest of the grant awards. Stay tuned for our June 16th announcement of all the additional grants.
So Lowell's Boat Shop may get something yet and if its not from there, it may be from here:
Each year, The Provident Bank gives the community the choice to vote for which local non-profit organizations should receive a share of the $20,000 set aside by The Provident Community Foundation for their OUR COMMUNITY, YOUR E-VOTE PROGRAM.
Vote today for Lowell's Boat Shop by visiting TheProvidentBank.com and clicking on the "OUR COMMUNITY, YOUR E-VOTE" button.
Deadline: May 31, 2009. Only one vote per person, please.
