Abstract:

Historic preservation can play an important role in achieving the objectives of a local housing policy which stresses neighborhood revitalization. This article suggests the growing importance of preservation as a housing strategy and illustrates how preservation in one North Carolina city, Wilmington, has helped to stimulate public investment and revitalization in the central city.

Abstract:

Inner city neighborhoods, although in need of preservation and improvement, may not offer attractive options for investment. The author suggests a strategy of reinvestment for stabilization of the market that would allow for improved housing conditions in such neighborhoods.
