Abstract
- This article discusses various issues related to architectural technology, and reports that by using the latest high-technology tools, preservation architects find the right balance between celebrating a building's treasured history and allowing it to live on into the future. Preservation architects clearly walk a fine line between the realities of the past and the needs of the present, all the while establishing reasoned and consistent justification for their actions for future generations who will one day inherit these cultural legacies. The article further focuses on architectural renovation of San Francisco's Conservatory of Flowers.
