What We Do
People often ask us what we do as preservation advocates...
At Preserve RI we aim to find productive uses for old buildings and demonstrate best stewardship practices at the historic buildings under our care. We also offer guidance and support to local groups defending threatened places through our Community Preservation Response program, identify and find solutions for common preservation challenges, and advocate for legislation, including historic tax credits, that revitalizes historic buildings and strengthens the economy.
