Adaptive Reuse, Restoration and Preservation

‘The greenest building is the one that already exists’. Carl Elefante, FAIA, Architect

A report by the US National Trust for Historic Preservation in 2016 found that existing buildings easliy overcome, through efficient operations and preservation, the negative environmental impacts connected to some new construction processes.

We also know intuitively that preserving our built environment is an economic powerhouse.
