Title: Historic Preservation as Part of Downtown Redevelopment
Abstract: For decades nonmetro downtown business districts have faced pressures from shopping center developments and stagnating economic bases. Some communities are using historic preservation to help rejuvenate their ''Main Streets.” The economic benefits of historic preservation activities are difficult to measure, but most efforts have at least improved the appearance of downtown buildings. Community leaders often report increased community pride and cohesiveness as benefits of historic preservation.
