Preservation Is The Key To Urban Revitalization

"Over the past five years, new financing tools have sparked a wave of historic renovation work nationwide, including the $146.8 million restoration of the vacant Book-Cadillac Hotel in downtown Detroit into a 470-room hotel and 70 apartments.Through the use of tax credits for historic properties, which allow developers to sell a portion of the development costs of a renovation project to investors, more vacant buildings across the country are being spared from the wrecking ball."
