Parkitecture, building into the landscape – Come discover the planned “Parkitecture” of historic Bascom Lodge. This charming structure, built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in the1930s, was designed to fit within the landscape on the highest point in Massachusetts. Bascom Lodge offers a superior example of this rustic architectural style from the golden age of public park development. Today, the lodge is a demonstration of preservation success through DCR’s Historic Curatorship Program, enabling future generations to enjoy mountain-top amenities.
