This National Park Service grant aims to fund the critical stabilization of significant historic residential buildings located at 158 Limerick in Keweenaw. These structures, dating to circa 1864, are among the few remaining from the region’s early industrial copper mining period. Currently in critical condition, they face ongoing decay and deterioration from weathering and neglect. Two of the three roofs have failed, leading to an imminent loss of historic fabric if immediate action isn’t taken. The grant will support essential stabilization efforts to protect these invaluable assets. The property owner, Quincy Mine Hoist Association, has granted permission for the National Park Service to carry out the required preservation work.

Description: | The house at 158 Limerick, circa 1864, is one of only a few remaining residential buildings from the Keweenaws early industrial copper mining period. The structures are in critical condition. Stabilization is required to protect the three structures from on-going decay and deterioration as a result of weathering and lack of regular maintenance. The roofs have failed on two of the three structures. Imminent loss of historic fabric will result without immediate action. The property owner, Quincy Mine Hoist Association will allow the National Park Service to stabilize the properties. |
