Best Practices in Historic Preservation
Thursday, May 13, 2021
5:30 - 6:30ish pm
Free Virtual Webinar - Webex Platform

Celebrate Preservation Month by learning about best practices in building preservation and rehabilitation! Anna Nau, Allison Chambers, and Rachel Wright from Ford, Powell & Carson will address best practices when it comes to approaching a project and share examples of the local firm's work. Broad in scope, our speakers will touch on various topics, including: pre-construction assessments, evaluating material condition, integrating modern systems (HVAC, electrical, plumbing) without compromising historic integrity, and maximizing the retention and reuse of existing material.

This event is part of our 2021 Virtual Historic Home Speaker Series! Join us monthly for events focused on some of the most popular local preservation and home maintenance topics, including sustainable landscaping, weatherization, wood window repair, painting, and more. You can find a video archive of our previous events on our YouTube channel.

This series is hosted by the Rehabber Club, an initiative of the City of San Antonio Office of Historic Preservation.
