Time: 8:00am to 9:00am
Location: Mill City Museum, ADM Conference Room: 6th Floor, 710 South Second Street
Breakfast with a Preservationist - What Are the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation?
Although only ten brief rules, the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation play a vital role in the practice of historic preservation. While almost every aspect of historic preservation bears relationship to the Standards, their main intent is to direct the long-term preservation of a historic property’smaterials, design, and features.
The Standards’ brevity, though, can be a source of debate regarding their interpretation. What is involved in the Standards? After years of being put into practice, are changes needed? Or do they already set the highest standard of preservation?
Our April Breakfast will feature a discussion with three professionals whose work involves the application of the Standards to historic properties within Minnesota:
Natascha Weiner, Senior Design Reviewer, Minnesota State Historic Preservation Office; Bob Mack, FAIA, Principal, MacDonald & Mack Architects; and Michael Bjornberg, AIA, Associate Vice President and Project Manager with HGA
Architects.
Stephanie Atwood, Historian / Architectural Historian with Hess, Roise and Company, will serve as moderator.
Metered street and ramp parking are available. Coffee and bakery will be provided. Donations to cover costs are appreciated.
