Applying the Secretary of the Interior Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties

Excellent presentation

if I have a property that may qualify as historic, why would I chose any treatment other than rehabilitation knowing rehab has economic advantages.

Never pay any kind of historical restoration preservation society whatever especially not anything masonry related and I know exactly what I’m talking about I have decades of experience long since retired! These people are frauds phonies fake news! You would be better off just covering up a brick wall or whatever you wanted to change masonry wise with something else than pay some historical society who is clearly clueless about the work because they have zero clue about how to actually restore anything masonry related and I mean even simple stuff and I would challenge any one of these phonies to a skills challenge of any kind especially knowledge because they are mentally incompetent when it comes to anything masonry and really shouldn’t be allowed to touch it! Anyone who needs serious historical masonry restoration needs to hire someone from another country like England or any of the Scandinavian countries Ireland etc anywhere is better than no merit no standards USA and you are correct in America today you are way better off rehabbing
