Historic Landscape Preservation

Historic landscape preservation is the practice of protecting and maintaining outdoor areas that have historical, cultural, or aesthetic significance. This includes gardens, parks, battlefields, and urban areas that reflect important events, people, or design styles from the past. The goal is to preserve these landscapes for future generations, ensuring that the stories they tell and the beauty they provide remain intact. Preservation efforts can involve careful planning, restoration, and advocacy to balance development needs with the importance of retaining our shared heritage and natural environment.
