Over the weekend DCAM released their final report on the Clock Tower at Worcester and what is now going to happen. It isn't pretty.
 
Here's the full report (at the bottom it lists all people that wrote letters, including some of us!):
 http://www.env.state.ma.us/mepa/mepacerts/2012/sc/enf/14839enf.pdf
 
I guess something else to think about at this juncture is the future of Hooper Hall (or as DMH/DCAM refers to it as the Hooper Turret). In the form letter we received they mention retiaing it and using it for the "a future use that will likely involve recognizing the rich history of Worcester State Hospital".

"It includes a massive clock tour, visible from miles away"

Are you fucking kidding me?! Proof positive that this state is run by fucking retards, as if anyone had any doubt.

Thanks for posting this.  I was going to ask the other day if anyone's heard anything on this. 

Total retards.  "Historical" means nothing to a lot of people in this state which makes zero sense to me.  It always comes down to the almighty dollar.
