Fight the Blight With History: Advisory Council Issues New Policy Statement

The U.S. Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP) has adopted a new policy statement on historic preservation and community revitalization.  The policy focuses on communities that have suffered major economic loss because the concurrent blight has led to the demolition of thousands of buildings and entire neighborhoods. 

 

Many of the buildings and neighborhoods were on the National Register of Historic Places, so the ACHP has issued a policy statement in the hopes of helping communities balance revitalization efforts with historic preservation goals.
