Virginia Preservation Conference
October 18-19, 2018 |
The Virginia Preservation Conference, hosted alongside the Virginia Department of Historic Resources, will take place in Danville, October 18-19 at the Community Market. Programming will echo the modern preservation movement, which recognizes the need for a more inclusive representation of increasingly socio-economically, racially and ethnically diverse communities, and the importance of protecting Virginia’s diverse historic resources that tell a more accurate story of the Commonwealth’s unique identity.
Donovan Rypkema, the well-known principal of PlaceEconomics, a Washington, D.C.-based real estate and economic development consulting firm that specializes in downtown and neighborhood commercial district revitalization, will speak about urban revitalization and ways gentrification and displacement can negatively change the character of historic communities.
