Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Preservation of the Old North Church Selective Demolition to Determine Source of Water Infiltration" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS 14 NERO 0033) is a National Park Service notice describing a cooperative agreement that had already been awarded, not a competitive funding opportunity open for new applications. In other words, the posting functions as a formal public announcement that funding was designated in advance for a specific partner organization, The Old North Foundation, rather than an invitation for other organizations to apply.
The purpose of the award is to address water infiltration issues affecting the Old North Church campus, specifically problems believed to be associated with the northerly exterior brick walkway. The funded work focuses on temporary measures to alleviate water intrusion and on targeted, selective demolition inside the Old North Church gift shop area to help determine the source and pathways of the water infiltration. The demolition scope is described as removing or opening up wall coverings and flooring that have been damaged by water, both to mitigate immediate impacts and to enable investigation of where the moisture is entering and how it is traveling through the structure.
The affected interior space is the Old North Church gift shop, which is located not in the main church building itself but in the adjacent Chapel of St. Francis of Assisi. This adjacent chapel is identified as a historic building within the Old North Church campus and is included within the park's authorized boundary. The announcement also connects the work to the park's General Management Plan, noting that locating support services (such as the gift shop) in the adjacent building is part of the long-term approach to supporting preservation of the main church building. In that context, addressing water damage and infiltration in the chapel supports the broader preservation strategy for the overall historic site.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity is categorized as "Mandatory" and uses a "Cooperative Agreement" funding instrument, indicating a partnership-style award where the National Park Service may have substantial involvement compared to a standard grant. The CFDA number listed is 15.954 (National Park Service Conservation, Protection, Outreach, and Education). The posting lists one expected award, and the financial details show a total estimated funding amount of $50,000, with an award ceiling and floor both set at $50,000, implying a single fixed award amount. No cost sharing or matching requirement is indicated.
Although the listing includes an eligible applicant category (nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status other than institutions of higher education), that eligibility language does not signal an open competition in this case. The notice repeatedly clarifies that it is not a request for applications and that the award was already designated for The Old North Foundation. The posting date and creation date are June 3, 2014, with an original and current closing date of June 8, 2014, and an archive date of June 9, 2014, reflecting a short public posting window typical of award announcements rather than solicitation periods.
For questions or access issues related to the announcement, the contact listed is Keith Zotti, Partnership Program Specialist, with a phone number of 215-597-9153, under the National Park Service.
