The Boston Society of Architects (BSA/AIA) has been asked to nominate two architects for appointment to serve on the Watertown Historic District Commission.

Serving on an Historic Commission is a great way to help shape the community.

If you are interested, please send a resume and brief statement of interest to Jennifer Effron, [email protected] by the end of day on Thursday, September 10, 2020 | 11:59 PM EST.

Once received, the BSA’s Committee on Public Appointments (COPA) will review applications and nominate two architects, from which the town of Watertown will select one architect to serve on the commission.

The Commission seeks an architect to serve on this 7-member Commission for a period of three (3) years. The Commission meets at 7:00 PM on the fourth Thursday each month for approximately 2-3 hours. Site visits and review of materials also takes about 30 minutes per month. The primary function of this commission is to review any proposed exterior alterations or construction to structures within the Mount Auburn Street Historic District.

The Historic Commission prefers candidates who live or work in Watertown. The BSA also strongly encourages women and minority architects to apply. Please feel free to reach out with any questions to Jennifer Effron at [email protected] or 617-391-4011.
