Historic Buildings and Structures. Rehabilitation of non-historic buildings and structures, (i.e. those less than 50 years old), except when alteration to the existing building or structure may impact a surrounding historic district. New construction is not an exempt activity.
Historic Buildings and Structures. All major projects and general works should demonstrate a respect for waterway heritage, and an approach based on minimum physical intervention involving minimum loss of existing fabric should be undertaken. Interventions should be reversible wherever possible. Xxxxxx should be had for the contributions of different periods of work in an historic structure. The heritage value of such contributions must be judged within the context to which their host structure belongs. The patina of age and use forms part of the value of a historic building or structure and its removal should only be considered when it is essential to the protection of historic fabric. Falsification of patina should be avoided. Most repairs and alterations should be carried out in materials that match the historic fabric. Interventions involving replacement of missing parts should be discreetly date-marked to differentiate new from old. Historic materials, fixtures and fittings are valuable and wherever possible should remain in situ. Where such items cannot be left in situ they should be carefully salvaged and stored for re-use in an appropriate context.
