Book synopsis

Since the 1960s, public attention has been drawn increasingly towards the thematic link between historic preservation and ur- ban planning. Nowadays, the organized historic preservation mo- vement in the USA is more than a mere "yearning for history": it represents an active and integral part of urban plannig in US cities. In order to approach these planning, economic, and soci- al issues in the field of historic preservation, this book analyzes a variety of interdisciplinary methods, focusing on four selected historic districts within the CBDs (Central Busi- ness Districts) of Philadelphia and Boston (in the north) and Charleston and Savannah (in the south).
