Historic preservation is rightfully valued for its aesthetic and cultural contributions to a city. But more and more the economic, social, and environmental contributions are being identified and measured. Join Donovan Rypkema for a presentation that will present evidence from a dozen recent city-level studies about preservation’s role in attracting knowledge and creative class workers, generating local jobs, providing walkable neighborhoods, and other positive contribution.

Presented by the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, the Buffalo History Museum, the Lipsey Architecture Center, and Preservation Buffalo Niagara and Sponsored by the Bauer Family Foundation, the Erie County Cultural Board, the New York State Council on the Arts, and the Preservation League of New York State
