WAMC: Volunteers Assess Tornado Damage To Historic Properties (2011-07-05): "The Springfield Preservation Trust and Preservation Massachusetts have collaborated to try to assess what the devastating tornadoes did to Springfield's historic treasures. Volunteers armed with spread sheets that list the addresses of historic districts are going up and down streets in the hard hit Maple High, Six Corners and South End neighborhoods doing what's called a sidewalk assessment..
That's Carol de Carlo, one of the volunteers with the Springfield Preservation Trust. On a recent afternoon she was noting for the record the appearance of century old Victorian mansions that sit on the former campus of the McDuffie School high up a hill overlooking downtown Springfield and the Connecticut River."
