About this Event

Author and architectural historian Scott T. Hanson explores the integral connection

between historic preservation and a sustainable future through the lens of building

construction in New England over the past 350 years. His talk will explain why former

National Trust president Richard Moe’s statement, “The Greenest Building is the One

that Already Exists” is true and important for the future of our planet.
