Our History, Architectural History & Preservation Planning Clients

Built resource services most often support public and private-sector projects involving governmental approvals for funding, permitting or licensing on the local, state, or federal levels. Historic preservation compliance triggers range from agency programs, to new construction associated with residential and commercial development, to complex infrastructure projects associated with the energy and transportation sectors, to work within designated historic districts, to time-sensitive recovery projects following natural disasters.
