Preservation Connecticut
For over four decades, we have successfully championed the protection of remarkable community assets all over the state by leveraging funding, advocating, forming partnerships, and promoting stewardship. We believe that preservation truly matters. It matters because historic places connect us to the lessons, techniques, stories and people of the past. They evoke emotions and memories. Some are considered sacred. The historic places we choose to preserve speak to our identity and reflect our values as a society. In addition, preservation and sustainability go hand in hand. Historic buildings tend to be built better and are more comfortable than current construction. Their warm materials often appeal to the heart. And the “greenest” building is a building that’s lasted for generations.
