With an emphasis on solution-based ideas for historic preservation and resiliency, presentations will incorporate multidisciplinary viewpoints with the intent to provide property owners of historic resources with short, medium, and long-term solutions. This event will be hosted at the Miami Beach Golf Club, 2401 Alton Road. The event is free with registration.

This year’s workshop will focus on solutions for private property adaptation as well as financing opportunities to assist property owners in making their structures more resilient.
