  • Tax Increment Financing: an Improved Revitalization Tool by Renée Tribert, Project Manager, Making Places
    Connecticut Preservation News November/December 2015 Volume XXXVIII, No. 6 Closing the Gap: Financing Hartford’s Downtown By Brad Schide, Housing Renaissance Connecticut Circuit Rider Downtown Hartford is undergoing a housing revival, and historic buildings have taken center stage, complementing other economic development projects such as the University of Connecticut campus, minor-league baseball stadium, and the Front Street redevelopment. With their strategic location, these historic build- ings have long been potential amenities, but private financing alone was not able to cover the full cost of renovating them. Only with new and expanded public funding can developers close the financing gap. In Hartford, money from three sources has helped make up the difference between financing and finished projects: Federal and State Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credits, the State Department of Economic and Community Development (DECD), and the Capital Region Development Authority (CRDA). This article will show how these gap funds made possible the reuse of four historic downtown buildings. All four projects used Federal and State Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credits.

  • CPN-Sept/Oct 2004-B
    ~ CT·TRUST Connecticut FOR HISTORIC PRESERVATION Preservation News September / October 2004 Volume XXVII, No. 5 The Most Important Threatened Historic Places in Connecticut – 2004 sing nominations submitted by members, leads from an infor- Umal poll of preservationists across the state, and the observations of our Connecticut Circuit Riders, the Connecticut Trust has compiled a list of the most impor- tant threatened historic places in the state. Our aim is to call attention to especially important historic sites that are under threat or to common dangers that imperil a num- ber of historic places in Connecticut. As we looked around the state this year, three recurring themes emerged. One is the need for sources of funding to close the “appraisal gap” — the difference between the cost of renovating a building and its expected value once renovation is complete. Even when there is recognition of signifi- cance, local support, and a willing developer, commercial lenders will not lend more than their appraisals indicate a property is worth. Convinced of the long-term viability of many preservation projects that cannot obtain short-term financing, the Trust is investigating ways of closing this gap. A second theme is demolition by neglect. From inner cities to expensive This dam, which powered the American Thread Company mills in neighborhoods, important historic buildings are allowed to Willimantic, is one of many across the state that are threatened with deteriorate. “The building fell into disrepair,” owners say, as if demolition. Since this photo was taken in 1968, the brick mill has been demolished and the stone one renovated.

  • The Trees of Bushnell Park by Pamm Cooper, Uconn Home & Garden Education Center
    The Trees of Bushnell Park By Pamm Cooper, UConn Home & Garden Education Center Bushnell Park, the oldest publicly funded park in the United States, was named for the Reverend Horace Bushnell, who conceived the idea of an open space in Hartford that would be available for people to enjoy free of charge. His good friend was the landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted, who was involved in the designs for both Central Park in New York City and Forest Park in Massachusetts at that time. Olmsted recommended Horace consult his Swiss-born counterpart, Jacob Weidenmann, who was also a botanist. Weidenmann became the first superintendent of parks in Hartford, and not only designed Bushnell Park, but also Cedar Hill Cemetery on Fairfield Avenue. Both of these parks are dotted with many notable trees, including those considered state champions. American beech, image by Pamm Cooper. Bushnell Park has many rare and native trees and originally contained more than 150 species of trees. Some have been lost, but many are specimen trees worthy of a walk and a look. You can stop by the League of Women Voters desk at the Legislative Office Building entrance on Capital Avenue and get a free “Tree Walk” brochure before heading out. This brochure is highly recommended as, although some trees have labels, many do not. You could also bring a good illustrated tree field guide that includes trees that are from a more southern climate. Some of the trees of interest include a doubled-trunked gingko, bald cypresses, dawn redwoods and magnolias. There are three state champion specimens and these are a turkey oak (Quercus cerris), a Chinese toon (Cidrela sinensis) by the Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Arch, and a hardy rubber tree (Eucommia ulmoides).
