<p class="MsoNormal">This article buries some good points, and doesn’t seem to hit the big one. We need people to understand WHY any of these things are worth saving, and in my opinion, the word preservation really doesn’t encompass it.

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Katie-<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Interesting article that illustrates some very practical issues as we work on revitalization of our historic downtown. I think a graded approach with more small scale financing options would help small rural communities like ours to redevelop
using realistic standards and resources.<o:p></o:p></p>
