<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">Did you know that you can preserve the historic character of the windows in an older home while refreshing and repairing them to meet today’s energy savings goals? Plan to attend a workshop titled, “The Basics of Wood Window Repair” from 10 a.m. – noon on May 5 at the Architectural Heritage Center, <A href="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=701+SE+Grand+Avenue+Portland,+OR+97214&jsv=107&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=39.916234,81.210938&ie=UTF8&ll=45.518542,-122.660787&spn=0.008645,0.019827&t=k&z=16&iwloc=addr" target=_blank><SPAN style="COLOR: windowtext; TEXT-DECORATION: none; text-underline: none">701 SE Grand Ave., Portland.</SPAN></A></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">Original wood windows are the “eyes of a building” and contribute tremendous charm and authenticity to our older homes. With a focus on improving function, this workshop will cover the basics that owners of older homes should know, including: signs of window deterioration, preventive maintenance and repair practices, plus good ideas about weatherization. Patty Spencer will share her years of experience in preserving and restoring the function of original, double-hung, wood windows found in homes built in the 1940s and earlier.
