TCP is proud to have participated in the rennovation of  one of Boston, Massachusetts’, most notable landmarks – the Paragon Carousel.  TCP supplied the light bulbs for this project.  According to the Partners in Preservation web site,

“The Carousel, built in 1928 as part of Paragon Park, is one of just 150 hand-carved historic carousels left in the U.S. Now the centerpiece of Nantasket Beach, the carousel is the only ride from the Park left in Massachusetts”.

Web site visitors have from now, until May 18, 2009, to cast their vote for the landmark they think should be the recipient of a grant.  As of this date – the paragon Carousel is in 1st place!  So cast your vote today!
