Sample text
As in Alexandria, the review board in Santa Fe had reviewed a high volume of new construction. Savannah, Georgia, was recognized as having one of the most successful preservation programs in the country in 1977, due to the activities of the Historic Savannah Foundation, a private organization. The city administered design review in the historic district, which was created in 1973. Telluride, Colorado, a small mining town, was in the early stages of shifting to a ski and tourist economy. The town adopted its historic zoning in 1972, as it was facing tremendous development pressures.
This type of design guidance is based on a close and sensitive assessment of the character and qualities of the area to which it relates, and it should concentrate on matters of context, scale, density, the relationship between buildings and the spaces between them, the enhancement of public areas, ease of access, pedestrian safety, and where relevant, the appropriate use of locally derived materials, building techniques, and architectural features, not in the fonn of replication or pastiche but to assist in achieving congruity and a lively sense of continuity.
The City Assembled. London: Thames and Hudson. 2 Reviewing New Design in Historic Districts Ellen Beasley Historic Preservation Consultant, Houston, Texas One resident described the historic review board meetings in Santa Fe, New Mexico, as "the most democratic forum in town" because "it equalizes everybody. Some big-shot architect from Albuquerque comes strutting in and just gets spit out. " Needless to say, the architect from Albuquerque might refute that conclusion, but democratic or not, one of the most active arenas of design review in the United States has been the locally designated historic district, the first of these being Charleston, South Carolina, in 1931.
