Explore how green building and historic preservation can work together in a transit station redevelopment project in your community. The webinar will feature an overview of Green Preservation (green building + historic preservation) with issues ranging from historic tax credits to green building certification. Three case studies will illustrate a blend of green building and historic preservation transit station projects in St. Paul, Minnesota; Columbia, Missouri; and Seattle, Washington. Each project team will discuss lessons learned, funding sources, and the project’s impact on the surrounding community.
This free webinar is part of a Region 5 EPA & Region 7 FTA outreach effort highlighting the practical implementation of the Livability Principles that are the basis for the Partnership for Sustainable Communities. FTA, DOT, and EPA representatives will highlight the federal and state funding options available to implement green preservation and transit station projects in your community.
