“Preservation is not only about restoring historic monuments, but also about recycling durable buildings; even contemporary structures can have their exterior envelope performance enhanced. The character of our urban areas, landscape, and society is defined by what we save, giving us a sense of place as well as the continuity of history. At the same time, preservation is about managing change. Historic buildings are the backdrop for the new structures we create”
