Preservation Roundtable hosting Happy Hour! 🍻🎉
Thursday, September 10, 5:30 p.m.
Guest speaker: Katlyn Cotton is a Principal at PlaceEconomics, where she conducts research on the economic and community impacts of historic preservation. Her work spans city and and statewide economic impact studies, Main Street programs, historic tax credit studies, housing analyses, and policy research that expands the coalition for preservation by demonstrating how it advances broader community goals. For Roundtable, Katlyn will share findings from recent studies on housing affordability and historic preservation. At a time when preservation is often portrayed as a barrier to housing production or affordability, the research of PlaceEconomics demonstrates that historic neighborhoods frequently support greater housing diversity, higher residential density, and continued housing growth, while preserving the character and identity that make communities resilient.
