This Land is Your Land Series: Private Land
This Land is Your Land Series: Private Land
-- Recorded 4 April 2018 at The Massachusetts Historical Society, Boston, MA --
Panelists: Panelists: James Levitt, Lincoln Institute of Land Policy; Meg Winslow, Mount Auburn Cemetery; Cindy Brockway, The Trustees; and moderated by William Clendaniel
Some of the early efforts to preserve open space for the physical and spiritual benefits offered by access to nature came from private organizations. Mount Auburn Cemetery was the first large-scale designed landscape open to the public in North America and as such began the rural cemetery movement that later led to public parks. In 1853 the Laurel Hill Association was founded in Stockbridge, inspiring a national Village Improvement Society movement. Later generations have benefited from the first private, statewide conservation and preservation organization, The Trustees of Reservations. Historic New England has saved traditional farms and Mass Audubon and other private organizations preserve and manage open space across the state. How common is this preservation by private organizations? How sustainable is this concept for future generations?
MHS is proud to partner with the Trustees of Reservations, the Department of Conservation and Recreation, Mount Auburn Cemetery, the Emerald Necklace Conservancy, and the Norman B. Leventhal Map Center to plan this programming.

The Library of Congress and Thomas Jefferson
In August of 1814, British troops set fire to the Capitol Building, burning the library. Retired President Thomas Jefferson, who was also the 3rd President of the United States, offered his personal book collection as a replacement. He was considered to have the finest library in the nation.
Library of Congress က ဝါရွင္တန္ ဒီစီ ၿမိဳ႕ေတာ္ မွာရွိတဲ့ America ဥပေဒျပဳလႊတ္ေတာ္ ရ႕ဲ စာၾကည့္တိုက္ ျဖစ္ပါတယ္။။ ဒီ Library of Congress လႊတ္ေတာ္ စာၾကည့္တိုက္ဟာဆိုရင္ ကမာၻ႔အႀကီးဆံုး စာၾကည့္တုိက္တစ္ခုျဖစ္ပါတယ္။။ ဒီလႊတ္ေတာ္ စာၾကည့္တိုက္ ထဲ မွာ သန္းနဲ႔ခ်ီတဲ့ စာအုပ္ေတြ၊ ရုပ္ပံုေတြ၊ ေျမပံု ေတြ ၊ အသံဖမ္းထားတဲ့ တိပ္ေခြေတြ ကို စုေဆာင္းထားပါ တယ္ ။
(သက္တမ္းအရင့္ဆံုး) ဒီလႊတ္ေတာ္ စာၾကည့္တိုက္ က ၁၈ ရာစုမွာ တည္ေထာင္တယ္။

Jefferson's collection included books in foreign languages and on all different subjects: philosophy, science, literature and so on.
Jefferson ရဲ အမွတ္ တရ သိမ္းထားတ့ဲ စာအုပ္ ေတြ က အမ်ဳိးစံု ရွိပါတယ္။ စာအုပ္ေတြက ေလာကအျမင္၊ အေတြးအျမင္ ၊ သိပံပညာ ၊ ရသစာေပ ပါဝင္ ပါတယ္။
In January 1815, Congress accepted Jefferson's offer and gave him $23,950 for his 6,487 books. This was the beginning foundation for the Library of the United States.
၁၈၁၅ ခုုနစ္ မွာ Congress က Jefferson ရဲ႕ ကမ္းလမ္းခ်က္ ကို လက္ခံယူလိုက္ၿပီး၊ Jefferson ကို ေငြ ေဒၚ လာ ၂၃ ၉၅၀ ႏွစ္ေသာင္းေလးေထာင္နီးပါး ေပး လိုက္ တယ္။ ဒီ အစက Library of Congress ရဲ ပထမဆံုး တည့္ေထာင္တဲ့ စာၾကည့္တိုက္ျဖစ္ပါတယ္။

This Land is Your Land Series: Public Land
-- Recorded 25 April 2018 at Massachusetts Historical Society, Boston, MA --
Panelists: Ethan Carr, UMass Amherst; Alan Banks, National Parks Service; Sean Fisher and Karl Haglund, Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation
Moderated by Keith Morgan
Massachusetts has undertaken large scale preservation of open space by government entities. The Boston Public Garden, the Emerald Necklace, the first American public beach in Revere, the banks of the Charles River, and a network of state forests were all significant contributions to keeping open land available to the public. Were these projects pioneering? Have they shaped national discussions? Are similar projects possible today or will projects like the Community Preservation Act offer equivalent impacts?
MHS is proud to partner with the Trustees of Reservations, the Department of Conservation and Recreation, Mount Auburn Cemetery, the Emerald Necklace Conservancy, and the Norman B. Leventhal Map Center to plan this programming.

Financial District is downtown’s business nerve center, crowded with stately banks, high-rise offices and sleek condos. Post Office Square, home to Norman B. Leventhal Park, offers a green respite with a lawn, sculptural fountain and garden trellises.
Suited professionals frequent the district's chain eateries, lunch spots and high-end coffee shops. Swanky lounges and boisterous Irish pubs draw after-work crowds.
