[MassHistPres] Sustainable Preservation- Lecture by Jean Carroon FAIA, LEEDR AP

[Acerbo Bachmann, Kathryn]

Sustainable Preservation- The Power of Preservation/Reuse as a Green
Strategy

Lecture by Jean Carroon FAIA, LEED(r) AP
January 26, 7 PM, Trinity Church, Copley Square
Book-signing to follow.

Co-sponsored by Trinity Church and the Boston Society of Architects

Buildings account for nearly 40% of all U.S. energy use and carbon
emissions. With one of the country's leading preservation architects as
your guide, the lecture will explore the power of adaptive reuse to
reduce those numbers and move us toward sustainability. It shows how an
icon such as H.H. Richardson's Trinity Church in Boston can go green-and
why a 1970s strip-mall supermarket not only deserves similar attention
but can also emerge as a building that delights users while it protects
the environment. Sustainable Preservation makes a compelling argument
that preservation and sustainability don't just protect the environment,
but deliver a full range of societal benefits, from job creation to
stronger social connection. 

Jean Carroon, FAIA, LEED(r) AP, is a principal in Goody Clancy's highly
regarded preservation practice, based in Boston. She has earned national
recognition for her expertise in applying sustainable-design technology
to historic buildings, including more than a dozen National Historic
Landmarks. She has directed the adaptive reuse and preservation of
signature buildings in a broad range of sectors, including educational,
civic and cultural projects for clients such as Harvard University and
the National Park Service. She is currently working on the renovation of
more than 50 historic structures on the St. Elizabeth's West Campus in
Washington, which will become the home of the Department of Homeland
Security.
