What is Historic Preservation?

Historic preservation is a multifaceted process that entails several steps. The first step is to identify places, sites, and resources that have managed to survive the test of time and provide invaluable insights into our shared past.

From there, experts evaluate the importance and significance of these resources to determine their relevance to society when viewed through the prism of modernity and contemporary needs. This evaluation is critical to ensure that we fully appreciate the value these places, sites and resources have to offer and how our actions can impact their continued existence.

Once identified and evaluated, these locations are maintained, cared for, and even restored where necessary to ensure they are preserved for future generations. The preservation of historic sites, for instance, encourages societal understanding of our cultural heritage, fosters civic engagement, and helps in shaping community identity.

Such structures also generate revenue through tourism and other economic activities, making them more sustainable. Overall, historic preservation is an essential process that safeguards our heritage, unearths diverse cultural perspectives, and helps us appreciate the value of our shared history.
