A Memphis practice that puts old buildings back to work.

Preserving the historic character of Memphis and the Delta is crucial to sustaining the authenticity of our cities and towns.


Historic Preservation

Rehabilitation and restoration of listed and eligible buildings, held to the Secretary of the Interior's Standards.

Adaptive Reuse

Finding the second life a building can carry — and the code path that lets it get there.

Historic Tax Credits

National Register listing and Part 1–2–3 certification, from eligibility through the final approval.

Urban Design

Downtown and neighborhood plans built on walkability, density, mixed use, and connection.

Creative Placemaking

Activating vacant storefronts and underused space while the long-term project takes shape.

Convening

Assembling the owners, agencies, consultants, and neighbors a revitalization actually requires.
