Portfolio - Environmentally Sustainable Architecture Historic Preservation

200 Whitsett Street

Historic buildings represent America's democratic, spiritual, and educational ideals. Only through preservation and adaptive reuse will these artifacts that define our neighborhoods, towns, and cities survive for future generations to use and enjoy. This building is a significant example of 1920's residential architecture - representing Shingle Style and Arts & Crafts influences. As the city prospered, this residence deteriorated while the neighborhood transformed to commercial activities. Through an adaptive reuse approach it was converted to new and economically viable uses while the significant architectural features were respected and preserved.
