Historic Preservation and Renovation

The renovation or preservation of an historic building is a major undertaking, an exciting adventure. Lee H. Levey, AIA offers you extensive knowledge of architecture styles, building technology that respects the essence of an original structure, and a great deal of experience in bringing lovely older buildings back to life.

Whatever your project, it is likely that Lee has worked on one quite similar. His portfolio includes several 18th century colonials and farmhouses, a 19th century Greek Revival townhouse and numerous Victorian-era homes. Lee’s activities specific to preservation and adaptive re-use have included recreating more than one original façade, restoring a long-demolished stoop, researching original windows, converting large single-family homes to condominiums, and adapting an old mill for use as an office and retail complex.

Lee H. Levey, AIA is working with a local community group in his neighborhood to establish an historic district. The insight, experience and judgment he contributes to that effort will also influence your project. As a sole practitioner, Lee is hands-on with all aspects of every project, from evaluating the current structure, to ensuring a faithful restoration by researching original elements, to guiding your potential tax credit efforts. With a Lee H. Levey, AIA design, your historically preserved home or office will be restored to its original charm, and completely comfortable by today’s standards.
