Terrace Talks 2019, part 2
Why Old Places Matter
Why Old Places Matter will be discussed by three long-time SOHO leaders informed by a recent book of the same name and subtitled "How Historic Places Affect Our Identity and Well-Being." As author Thompson M. Mayes of the National Trust for Historic Preservation notes, we may not always see past bricks, mortar, and the significant people and events they contained, but historic buildings and sites play a major role in the social, psychological, and emotional fabric of our complex culture and enrich our quality of life, as individuals and collectively.
Panelists include Jaye MacAskill, SOHO's immediate past president and a professional researcher; Dan Soderberg, maker of SOHO's award-winning documentary "Four Decades of Historic Preservation in San Diego County" and a board member; and David Swarens, also a board member who twice served as president and who helped create two large historic districts in the City of San Diego. Each speaker will illustrate the book's concepts, using examples from SOHO's preservation efforts over 50 years. The concepts include memory, continuity, beauty, ancestors, creativity, community, and sustainability. Amie Hayes, SOHO's Historic Resources Specialist, will moderate the panel.
