Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for <br />Rehabilitation <br />1.A property shall be used for its historic purpose or be placed in a new use that <br />requires minimal change to the defining characteristics of the building and its site <br />and environment. <br />2.The historic character of a property shall be retained and preserved. The removal <br />of historic materials or alteration of features and spaces that characterize a <br />property shall be avoided. <br />3.Each property shall be recognized as a physical record of its time, place, and use. <br />Changes that create a false sense of historical development, such as adding <br />conjectural features or architectural elements from other buildings, shall not be <br />undertaken. <br />4.Most properties change over time; those changes that have acquired historic <br />significance in their own right shall be retained and preserved. <br />5.Distinctive features, finishes, and construction techniques or examples of <br />craftsmanship that characterize a historic property shall be preserved. <br />  <br />    <br />
