New Book: Stewardship of the Built Environment: Sustainability, Preservation and Reuse

Robert A. Young, Professor of Architecture at the University of Utah College of Architecture + Planning, has written Stewardship of the Built Environment: Sustainability, Preservation and Reuse (Island Press, 2012) which explores the social, environmental, and economic sustainability of preserving and reusing existing buildings.  Professor Young’s first book, Historic Preservation Technology (Wiley, 2008), was recently included on the National Trust for Historic Preservation’s “Essential Preservation Reading List” and was subsequently cited by The Atlantic Cities as one of the “10 Most Compelling Historic Preservation Reads”.
