HPI Preservation Lecture Series
UWM SARUP/HPI is introducing a lecture series that focuses on the
challenges of retaining key historic buildings and districts in Milwaukee.
This 5-year series consists of a fall presentation by a national or
international expert in the field of adaptive re-use followed by a
preservation symposium in the spring. The series will bring together
professionals from all areas of historic preservation with the intention of
creating cooperative strategies for future heritage preservation in
Milwaukee.
Developing the Future ..... Building on the Past
Carl Elefante has built an extensive body of work in the fields of
architecture, historic preservation, urban design and sustainable
development. As QEA’s Director of Sustainability and a recognized expert
in
the field of Green Preservation, Carl leads the firm’s sustainable design
practice as well as its college/university studio. Finding inspiration
throughout the ages - from Rome’s Pantheon to Cian Lorenzo Bernini, to th
e
architecture in the movies Bladerunner and Brazil - Carl is a strong
advocate for the power of design in shaping people’s lives. He will offer
case study examples of projects from around the country that demonstrate
the value of retaining and reusing existing historic buildings.
This lecture is co-sponsored by the HPI at UWM SARUP and the Milwaukee
Preservation Alliance.
