As celebrations of the 50th Anniversary of Landmarks Law come to a close, where is the historic fabric of our city going in the future? How has preservation played out alongside the city’s massive development and growth in recent years? Join us as 4 individuals from museums and advocacy groups throughout the city discuss the successes and failures of historic preservation within their neighborhoods and buildings, examine current issues in preservation law and city development, and engage with each other on key issues that can be better addressed in the future.
