Details | Join New Haven Preservation Trust and MakeHaven for a free event exploring the many different building styles that define New Haven’s neighborhoods. Architectural historian Michael Waters will share examples of Colonial, Federal, Greek Revival, Gothic Revival, Italianate, Queen Anne, Arts & Crafts, Colonial Revival, and Midcentury Modern homes from across the city — and how to identify the key architectural features of each style. Attendees of the session will: • Learn about a home’s “thesis statement” and how the architectural style reinforces it • Gain familiarity with architectural vocabulary used to describe parts of a structure • Understand the signature architectural elements that define a given style • Review strategies for sensitive rehabilitation • Discover additional architectural resources There will be time at the end of the presentation for Q&A. Please feel free to bring any questions about your home or potential restoration projects! Free and open to the public; reservations are required |
