Maintain integrity by using the Secretary of the Interior Standards
6. Deteriorated historic features will be repaired rather than replaced. Where the severity of deterioration requires replacement of a distinctive feature, the new feature will match the old in design, color, texture, and, where possible, materials. Replacement of missing features will be substantiated by documentary and physical evidence.

Rehab. Right Rehab. Wrong
WHY?

Next door neighbors
Restored and maintained original- doors, siding, windows, porch trim
Rehab. Right – has Integrity
Altered – added vinyl windows, added stucco siding, replaced porch window with “picture” window, replaced door with fake Victorian
Rehab. Wrong – does not have Integrity

Repair or Replace – evaluate cost versus benefit, and whether integrity of building is maintained
