Overcoming Barriers to Sustainably Redevelop Historic Communities: Focus on Main Street

Speakers: Nora Johnson, Policy Fellow, Office of Sustainable Communities, U.S. EPA; Yolanda Bouchee, Green Historic Preservation Specialist, U.S. EPA, Region 5; Joi Ross, Owner/CEO, APEX Direct, Inc.; Matthew Walsh. Assistant for Special Projects, City of Concord, NH

Green building practices do not need to be limited to new construction: historic properties can be an important way to incorporate green building into existing building stock and play an important role in downtown revitalization. This panel describes US EPA's efforts to assist in green historic preservation nationwide, focusing on EPA's recent Concord, NH, technical assistance project to help Concord identify tools to sustainably redevelop the upper stories of their historic properties downtown. The panel discusses lessons learned and provide tools for both developers and communities. In addition, the assessment tool resulting from the project is presented, designed to help determine how successful a community has been in marrying green building practices, historic preservation, and smart growth principles.
