Sustainable Preservation: Greening Existing Buildings
A guide to green strategies for preservation and adaptive reuse-and the power of preservation/reuse as a green strategy. Sustainable Preservation takes a nuanced look at the hundreds of choices that adaptive reuse requires architects to make-from ingenious ways to redeploy existing structural elements to time-honored techniques for natural ventilation to creation of wetlands that restore a site's natural biological functions.
