Local leaders, community groups and Boston developer Beacon Communities came together to save Ames Shovel Works, a granite-walled relic of New England's Industrial Age. Preserving the building's integrity as one of the first assembly-line facilities in the country, this property now serves as a stunning residential complex for a diverse population.

Every year, the National Trust for Historic Preservation recognizes exemplary organizations, projects and people who represent the best that preservation has to offer. For the full 2015 list visit www.preservationnation.org/awards
