Historic buildings tell the stories of our past, our culture, and the events that molded our societies to be what they are today. AHL strives to respect and preserve the elements of buildings that contain these stories - while using innovative solutions to make buildings relevant to today’s needs and requirements.
Older buildings with architectural and historical significance are vulnerable to damage from environmental conditions as well as human activities. At AHL, we draw upon our experience and sensitivity to preserve and restore the significant character-defining features of historic properties to ensure their longevity and stability in the years to come.
Today’s complex system for meeting Federal, State and County requirements for the permitting of architectural projects includes various requirements for the identification, assessment, documentation and treatment of historic buildings and sites. AHL staff are professionally trained to conduct investigations and assessment services, prepare documents, and manage consultation for compliance requirements.
