What is Historic Preservation Architecture?
Historic preservation refers to conserving, protecting, and maintaining historic buildings, structures, and sites. It involves various activities to preserve these properties' architectural, cultural, and historical significance for future generations. Our team works closely with the National Park Service and the State Historic Preservation Offices to ensure all restoration efforts meet the Secretary of the Interior's Standards. Landmark preservation architects play a crucial role in this process, ensuring restoration and conservation efforts respect the original design and materials.
