St. Joseph’s High School: Classrooms to Bedrooms in the City of Lowell, MA

Congresswoman Niki Tsongas

“I am pleased and proud to know that Lowell’s former St. Joseph’s High School has been selected by the National Trust for Historic Preservation and American Express as one of 25 significant historic sites in Greater Boston to compete for preservation funds through the Partners in Preservation program.  This grant would help the Coalition for a Better Acre (CBA) in its renovation of the school building into 22 permanently affordable apartments. This renovation will not only provide beautiful and high quality housing in the historic Acre neighborhood of Lowell, but also will revive a monumental and highly visible community landmark and, in the process, revitalize a historically important neighborhood.  I encourage everyone to vote for the St. Joseph’s High School project.”
