I got this notification but I'm sorry I will have to pass as I don't go south of CT border. Don't know if any of the NYC bunch here go to these things or not but thought you might be interested. Ruth Merry Christmas and Happy Channuka 14th Annual Preservation Conferences Series! Save the date now for the Historic Districts Council’s <http://hdc.org/calendar.htm>14th Annual Preservation Conference, “Preservation 2030.” The conference will take place March 7-9, 2008. Taking Mayor Bloomberg’s <http://www.nyc.gov/html/planyc2030/html/plan/plan.shtml>PlaNYC 2030 as our starting point, HDC will gather a host of planners, advocates and professionals to discuss the future of preservation in the city. Is preservation included in the Mayor’s plan for the future of New York? How can we make sure that preservation principles are incorporated into efforts to accommodate an additional one million people over then next two decades? Watch your mailbox in January for full conference details! -- Ruth Barton [log in to unmask] Dummerston, VT -- To terminate puerile preservation prattling among pals and the uncoffee-ed, or to change your settings, go to: <http://listserv.icors.org/archives/bullamanka-pinheads.html>
