Preservation Categories

Boston categorizes historic buildings into different preservation levels:

  • Category 1: Buildings requiring complete preservation
  • Category 2: Buildings allowing limited modifications
  • Category 3: Buildings permitting contextual changes

Application Process

Commercial property owners must follow a structured application process:

  1. Submit detailed plans to the BLC
  2. Undergo design review
  3. Receive public feedback during mandatory hearing period
  4. Obtain final approval before commencing work

Financial Considerations

While preservation requirements can be costly, several financial incentives are available:

  • Federal Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credits
  • Massachusetts Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit
  • Local preservation grants
  • Special assessment programs

Compliance and Enforcement

The city maintains strict enforcement of preservation requirements:

  • Regular inspections of historic properties
  • Substantial fines for unauthorized modifications
  • Potential legal action for serious violations

Modern Adaptations

The BLC recognizes the need to balance preservation with modern business needs:

  • Allowances for energy efficiency upgrades
  • Accessibility modifications for ADA compliance
  • Integration of modern security systems

Related Topics:

  • Historical Zoning Laws in Boston's Downtown District
  • Adaptive Reuse of Historic Commercial Buildings
