"Historic preservation" has been described by Wikepedia, as an endeavor
that seeks to preserve, conserve and protect buildings, objects,
landscapes or other artifacts of historical significance. Other names
for the discipline or sub-disciplines include urban conservation,
landscape preservation, built environment conservation, built heritage
conservation, object conservation, and immovable object conservation.
"Historic preservation" is also generally used to refer to what is known
as "heritage conservation" or "heritage preservation". In most growing
cities, heritage structures, are under serious threat. Building
activity, expansion of cities to accommodate a growing population,
pressures for increasing FSI and general apathy towards our heritage has
led to neglect, damage and destruction of many structures possessing
architectural, historical, social and artistic qualities. One area of
our specialization is Heritage conservation and restoration.
