Boston, MA. 2 Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering, Northeastern University. Boston, MA. *Corresponding email: [email protected] ABSTRACT As a location of early European settlement, New England enjoys a wealth of historic buildings, which represent a rich cultural heritage and insight into New England life. Their longevity also offers the opportunity to identify the characteristics of long-lasting buildings, and to guide design for the historic buildings of the future. Old buildings are inherently sustainable; both because of abstract ideas like “embodied energy” but also by sustaining history and culture over time. This study combines field methods from vernacular architecture (a branch of material culture studies) and building science (which exists between architecture and engineering) to conduct detailed investigations buildings representing four centuries of New England residential construction. Methods include detailed physical measurements of each building, interior and exterior photography, as well as air leakage measurement with a blower door. Buildings are contextualized from the historical literature, and scientific measurements
