Finegold Alexander Principal Christopher Lane was sworn in as a member of the Amesbury Historical Commission last week.

“Since moving to Amesbury last year, I have enjoyed learning about the history of the city, supporting local businesses, attending local events, meeting locals that were born and raised here and how they express their love for this city, the beautiful houses in my neighborhood and throughout the city and the history of them,” Christopher says.

The seven-member Amesbury Historical Commission aims to preserve and protect buildings significant to the cultural, architectural, social, and political history of the city.

“Joining the Historical Commission is my opportunity to give back to the city I am proud to call my hometown,” he added.

The Commission is primarily responsible for reviewing applications for the demolition of buildings in the city to determine their significance.
