Editor’s note: Following is a copy of a letter sent to the Historic District Commission, which is scheduled to discuss the First Parish Church on Thursday, Nov. 13.
To the editor:
I believe that the First Parish Building Committee is working hard to try to show that the present proposed rebuilding of the Stearns Room fits in with the center of Lincoln and the historic district. I hope the Historic District Commission (HDC) will carefully consider the impact this proposed addition will have on the beauty and simplicity of the white church itself. There are alternatives to the present proposed plans that would perhaps fit better with the original building.
