Challenges associated with insuring both commercial and residential historic properties have become increasingly more difficult.
Watch the webinar recording and read a Q&A comprised of questions that we weren't able to answer during the session.

When the Old Post Office was approved to be demolished in 1970, chair of the @NEAarts Nancy Hanks fought to save the historic building. It was preserved and turned into government offices. Now leased as a hotel, the @NatlParkService manages the tower. #WomensHistoryMonth

There's a lot going on at the Lincoln Memorial. To accommodate visitors during the upcoming elevator replacement, contractors are building a large ramp in the memorial's plaza and the basement bathrooms have been closed, with signs leading to temporary facilities.
