HERITAGE & CHARACTER RETENTION

Heritage and Character retention plays a vital role in shaping a livable, inclusive, and culturally rich urban environment. Cities have a wide range of Heritage and Character buildings in distinct neighborhoods that reflect the layered history and evolving identity.

Our commitment to Heritage and Character retention ensures that growth and development are balanced with the preservation of what makes our cities unique. By protecting significant buildings, streetscapes, and cultural landmarks, and by encouraging sensitive infill and adaptive reuse, we strive to maintain the city’s sense of place, community memory, and visual identity. These efforts not only celebrate the past but also support sustainability, affordability, and neighborhood cohesion for generations to come.
