Greener Heritage: Enhancing Sustainability in Adaptive Use
New Brunswick, NJ
Thursday, June 5, 2008This working seminar tackles the question: How "green" can we make historic preservation? PNJ presents a daylong Charrette in which preservation practitioners are invited to join LEED-certified professionals in analysis of the Musical String Co. factory site in New Brunswick, identifying opportunities for maximizing the "green" potential of this (unrehabilitated) industrial landmark. Participants will explore issues such as rehabilitation v. replacement of existing historic materials; energy sources for lighting, HVAC, etc.; how to insulate historic buildings; water conservation; and indoor air quality. LEED rating and certification potential for preservation projects will be addressed. Funded in part by grant from National Trust for Historic Preservation, Henry A. Jordan Preservation Excellence Fund. (4) AIA/CES credits available
