HISTORIC PRESERVATION MAKES SENSE
Historic preservation capitalizes on the long-term investment in our built heritage.
In return, we enjoy using beautiful, historic buildings and places in new ways, but historic preservation also repays our investment with jobs, sustainably efficient use of materials, affordable places to live, work and play and authentic places in our towns, cities and countryside that tell the stories of the people who built the places.
Historic preservation is an important tool for places that want to succeed in the 21st century. Our well-preserved older buildings welcome today’s and tomorrow’s people to spend their lives here.

INVEST WITH ARCH FOR OUR FUTURE
Historic buildings and places connect us to our community’s story in ways that we cannot replicate. Cultural landmarks enhance our lives socially, culturally and economically. Today, businesses and homeowners are rediscovering and reinvesting in historic buildings, neighborhoods and commercial villages because this is where we want to work, live and play. ARCH’s work is beneficial and necessary to ensure that these architectural and cultural assets accurately reflect our legacy and continue to repay the investment our communities have made in them.
