DCR's Historic Curatorship Program

Preserving the past through public-private partnership
The 1903 Fort Revere Officers' Quarters in the latest property to be preserved through DCR's nationally recognized Historic Curatorship Program. With no agency reuse, the vacant building had fallen into disrepair. The Curator was selected through an open and competitive process and has committed to the rehabilitation, management and maintenance of the property as a two-family residence for the next twenty- five years.

The 1903 Officers Quarters at Ft. Revere is an intact example of standardized housing built for military personnel at the turn of the century. Ft. Revere served as a military base from the Revolutionary period to the mid-20th Century. The building and much of the concrete bastions of Ft. Revere were built as part of an aggressive coastal defense program referred to as the Endicott Period which lasted from 1885 to 1905.
