Most communities have certain special areas that date to earlier periods in the locality’s development. Over time, these areas become historic and are designated by the community as such. Localities often create a historic district ordinance and review board to protect them. This citizen panel approves all new construction, changes to existing buildings, site work, or demolitions within the historic district.

Since 1986, our firm has worked throughout the eastern U. S. on a wide variety of historic district design guidelines projects. Our products continually evolve to reflect new graphic techniques and capabilities, new conservation and preservation methods, appropriate substitute materials, and sustainable design practices.
