<\/a><\/p>\nWhy should we protect heritage buildings?<\/h3>\n
The following are the FOUR practical reasons to save historical buildings.<\/p>\n
1. They have ineffaceable value<\/strong><\/h4>\nHeritage buildings are mostly built with different materials than what we use now. Those materials tend to be stronger and more durable, as those buildings might have withstood many worse weather conditions. The materials then used, might even be unavailable today.<\/p>\n
2. These buildings attract people<\/strong><\/h4>\nBe it the history aficionados, the architecture enthusiasts, the people who love to reminisce the good old times, or the ones who just like the warmth of old buildings, these tend to attract people. Maybe the mixture of styles, different levels or the awkward corners, there\u2019s always something interesting to talk about the buildings.<\/p>\n
3. A reminder of city\u2019s culture and heritage<\/strong><\/h4>\nBy seeing historic buildings, whether related to something famous or recognizably dramatic, tourists and longtime residents are able to witness the aesthetic and cultural history of an area. Just as banks prefer to build safety, a city needs old buildings to maintain a sense of permanency and heritage.<\/p>\n
4. Preservation is a one-way street<\/strong><\/h4>\nOnce a historic site is destroyed, there is no way to save or to renovate it. These buildings are a rich source of history and heritage. We can never be certain of what will be valued in the future. This reality brings to limelight, the importance of locating and saving the buildings of historical importance, because once a piece of history is destroyed, it is lost forever.<\/p>\n
5. Economically beneficial<\/strong><\/h4>\nPreserving these buildings is cost-effective and energy efficient. We need less construction materials; there will be less debris; and we will be protecting history.<\/p>\n
Ways to conserve these buildings<\/h3>\n\u201cConservation\u201d means all the processes of looking after a place so as to retain its historical, architectural, cultural significance.

Preservation<\/strong><\/h4>\nIt focuses on maintenance stabilization; repair of existing historic materials, and retention of a property\u2019s form as it has evolved over time.<\/p>\n
2. Rehabilitation<\/strong><\/h4>\nIt acknowledges the need to alter or add to a historic property to meet continuing or changing uses while retaining the property’s historic character.<\/p>\n
