EXTENDING THE LEGACY GS A HIS T O R I C B U I L D I N G S TE WARD S HI P | 2 0 0 8 Preface The decade since the Center for Historic Buildings issued its first major publication, Held in Public Trust: PBS Strategy for Using Historic Buildings, has been a watershed period of stewardship achievement for GSA. During this time, GSA has firmly established itself in the forefront of the preservation profession, gaining recognition for the policies and model practices that make preservation integral to our business. GSA greeted the millennium with GSA Historic Building Leasing, a breakthrough report examining how GSA is supporting the reuse of historic buildings nationwide in large and small lease acquisitions, with solutions for tailoring tenant space requirements and marketing to promote agency location in historic buildings and districts. A year later, the Center released a six-volume Preservation Desk Guide featuring dozens of model GSA documents created to meet preservation responsibilities associated with our activities involving historic buildings. GSA’s 00 Legacy Vision took the strategy outlined in Held in Public Trust a step further to promote fiscally prudent use of our historic buildings by establishing architectural merit-based stewardship priorities and outlining specific financial turnaround measures for historic buildings that are not performing well. GSA’s national preservation policy, ADM 100. Procedures for Historic Properties, issued in 00, offered guidance to integrate Sections 106 and 110 into GSA’s daily business, help- ing associates keep historic buildings occupied and generating revenue to support their long-term maintenance, repair, and capital investment needs. The Center’s ground- breaking study Growth, Efficiency and Modernism: GSA Buildings of the 1950s, 60s and 70s, also released in 00, examined our poorly understood Modern federal office build- ings within the context of their time, with specific guidance for assessing National Register eligibility and case studies illustrating successful solutions to the unique pres- ervation challenges buildings of this era present. GSA took a second opportunity to comprehensively examine its nationwide stewardship track record in 005 with the publication of Extending the Legacy: GSA Historic Building Stewardship. The report affirmed impressive stewardship achievements in each Public Buildings Service (PBS) business area and a continued need to promote the Legacy Vision goal of putting historic buildings first in crafting space acquisition, investment, and dis- posal strategies. It also underscored the value of online resources, such as the key word searchable version of the Preservation Desk Guide, launched in 004, that help GSA asso- ciates meet agency stewardship responsibilities successfully with less effort. Collateral rewards for these efforts include the benefits successful GSA approaches offer other organizations facing similar stewardship challenges. Federal and internation- al agencies are turning to us for guidance, not only on preservation policy and practice, but also on achieving the broader vision of well-integrated change. We are proud to have been sought out by government agencies and heritage organizations in Canada, Mexico, Ireland, and the Soviet Union, as well as the Department of State, for guidance on managing a geographically diverse historic building inventory in a fiscally constrained steward- ship environment. GSA’s technical preservation expertise is actively sought in professional conference venues and by private architects and other government agencies. We are honored to have received international recognition for our stewardship policies and processes in awards from the Association for Preservation Technology International, the National Trust for Historic Preservation, the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation, and the American Institute of Architects, as well as statewide preservation organizations and trade associations. Our model preservation contract qualification requirements, technical specifications, design solutions, compliance checklists, and preservation report submission standards are benefiting state, local, and private sector projects as well as GSA regional project teams. In 004, GSA’s perimeter security “kit of parts” prototype generated nationwide interest among design professionals since results of the Center study Perimeter Security for Historic Buildings appeared in professional journals, trade magazines, and McGraw Hill’s 004 Building Security: Handbook for Architectural Planning and Design. In 009, GSA’s Center for Historic Buildings will release a new lobby security design guide for historic buildings. The guide examines a variety of historic building lobby sizes and configurations, with illustrated case studies and layout guidance, for successfully integrating security processing into historic building entry areas. Since its inception, the Center has energetically worked to improve the body of online preservation resources available to GSA associates nationwide, with online versions of all publications and guidance, along with a wide range of templates and model documents available by business function subject menus or searchable databases such as the online 4 Desk Guide. A substantial body of building documentation is now available in high-quality posters, brochures, and films to raise awareness among GSA associates, tenants, and the public. All of these materials are available in print or online. In this year’s Extending the Legacy update, we are proud to report successes in all areas of GSA activity affecting historic buildings, along with new publications and initiatives that are already bringing results. GSA’s 008 guidance publication, National Historic Preservation Act Section 106 Guidance for the Disposal of Historic Property, outlines an array of authorities and innovative approaches for meeting federal stewardship goals and GSA interests. The guide includes a large selection of annotated sample documents developed by GSA preservation and disposal teams, detailing how to carry out each approach successfully. Our ten-year Modern-Era Buildings Initiative has earned national attention as a model for broad-based policy that touches on all aspects of historic building inventory management. No success occurs in a vacuum. Our stewardship achievements depend on the efforts of front-line regional associates; contract architects, engineers, and construction firms who turn agency housing plans into physical space in new or existing buildings; and agency leadership. GSA’s Regional and Assistant Regional Administrators, Portfolio Directors, Property Development Directors, and Regional Counsel have proven great supporters of agency initiatives that favor historic building reuse and historic communities. Among the organizational advantages that have helped to make GSA’s substantial stew- ardship achievements possible is a culture of conscientious pragmatism fostered by public-spirited, yet business-minded, national leadership. This culture also supports an active exchange of knowledge, interdisciplinary collaboration, and expertise that travels from the bottom up, as well as from the top down. In this environment, extraordinary stew- ardship achievements can become routine business. Rolando Rivas-Camp, FAIA. Director, Center for Historic Buildings. 5 Contents. Preface page .

    New Executive Office Building - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Executive_Office_Building Coordinates: 38°53′57.7″N 77°2′20.4″W From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The New Executive Office Building (NEOB) is a U.S. federal government office building in Washington, D.C., for the executive branch. The building is located at 725 17th Street NW, on the north side of Pennsylvania Avenue. To the south is the Old Executive Office Building (Eisenhower Executive Office Building), which is next to the White House. The other sides are bounded by 17th Street NW (west), H Street NW (north), and Jackson Place and Lafayette Park (east). Within the same block are several buildings: Blair House, Trowbridge House, and Renwick Gallery in the south and the Decatur House to the north. Known as Federal Office Building #7, it was built from 1965[1] to 1969 and is ten stories tall, similar to the height of the Old Executive Office Building. According to Michael J. Bednar of the University of Virginia School of Architecture, "Four taller office buildings dating to earlier in the 20th century were demolished and replaced with next rowhouse office builds. One has an open base to serve as an entry to the New Executive Office Building via courtyard. The historic structures were preserved and rehabilitated for The New Executive Office Building, viewed from smaller federal agencies. The New Executive Office across 17th Street NW. Building has an offset H-shaped plan with a long brick facade along 17th Street."[2] The building was designed by architect John Carl Warnecke, who also designed 722 Jackson Place and the National Courts Building (717 Madison Place) on the opposite side of Lafayette Park during the same period.

    East Village/Lower East Side Manhattan the Historic Districts Council Is New York’S Citywide Advocate for Historic Buildings and Neighborhoods

    A GUIDE TO HISTORIC NEW YORK CITY NEIGHBORHOODS EAST VILLAGE/LOWER EAST SIDE ManhaTTan The Historic Districts Council is New York’s citywide advocate for historic buildings and neighborhoods. The Six to Celebrate program annually identifies six historic New York City neighborhoods that merit preservation as priorities for HDC’s advocacy and consultation over a yearlong period. The six, chosen from applications submitted by community organizations, are selected on the basis of the architectural and historic merit of the area, the level of threat to the neighborhood, the strength and willingness of the local advocates, and the potential for HDC’s preservation support to be meaningful. HDC works with these neighborhood partners to set and reach pres- ervation goals through strategic planning, advocacy, outreach, programs and publicity. The core belief of the Historic Districts Council is that preservation and enhancement of New York City’s historic resources—its neighborhoods, buildings, parks and public spaces—are central to the continued success of the city. The Historic Districts Council works to ensure the preservation of these resources and uphold the New York City Landmarks Law and to further the preservation ethic. This mission is accomplished through ongoing programs of assistance to more than 500 community and neighborhood groups and through public-policy initiatives, publications, educational outreach and sponsorship of community events. Six to Celebrate is generously supported by The New York Community Trust. Additional support for Six to Celebrate is provided by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature and by public funds from the New York City Depart- ment of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council and New York City Councilmembers Margaret Chin, Inez Dickens, Daniel Garodnick, Vincent Gentile, Sara Gonzalez, Stephen Levin and Rosie Mendez.

    Davenport 2025: Comprehensive Plan for the City Historic Preservation - 155 - Davenport 2025: Comprehensive Plan for the City Summary The historic preservation chapter (1986) of the city’s comprehensive plan asks the question, “What is ‘historic preservation?’” The answers provided by the authors are still true today: Put simply, historic preservation is the national movement to conserve the human-made environment. It includes efforts to protect buildings, structures, sites and neighborhoods associated with important people, events and developments. It is a movement which draws from the disciplines of history, architecture and archaeology and links us with our heritage.1 The 1986 chapter established five goals for Davenport’s historic preservation efforts: protect and enhance the character of the community’s significant neighborhoods and landmarks, coordinate local preservation efforts between the public and private sector, develop tools to create a favorable preservation climate, use preservation to strengthen the local economy, and increase the public awareness of the community’s history, culture, and heritage to create a sense of pride, place, and continuity.2 Davenport, like many communities across the country, experienced mixed preservation results over the past twenty years. The community has established numerous local and national historic districts in our community’s neighborhoods. State and local governments have cooperated to strengthen the city’s preservation programs in specific instances. The city has created incentives that can be used to preserve, protect, and enhance our built environment. On the downside, the city has failed to capitalize economically on its history, and the community has mixed feelings about the methods of and the reasons for historic preservation.
