On June 7th, we will draw the connections between our collective desire to preserve community character and culture, support the local economy, and lighten our impact on the environment.   We will hear about preservation/reuse efforts in the City of Boston, the triple bottom line that is possible, and tools to help enable planning to continue using existing buildings.

Our speakers include:
§  Alison Frazee, Boston Preservation Alliance
§  Erin McDade, Architecture 2030
§  Jennifer Doherty, MA Historical Commission
§  Kaitlin Cook, Place Economics

Come with your questions and an open mind. Let's harness our strengths to enable reuse of existing buildings along with development of a vibrant, local, reuse economy for building materials.

Who should attend: Municipal officials, advocacy groups, historic preservationists, architects/engineers/construction professionals, deconstruction and demolition businesses, waste haulers, building materials and reuse organizations, solid waste and recycling professionals.
Please share this invitation with all who may be interested.
