Richard Neutra’s Cyclorama, one of his most prized buildings, is located on the battlefield in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. Its future is in doubt, as the National Park Service would like to demolish the it. Typically, preservation focuses narrowly on retaining a building as is or with minimal intervention, but there are degrees of preservation yet to be explored that lie between maintaining the original condition and demolition. We have devised the groundwork for a more nuanced form of preservation that addresses today’s societal needs while respecting our cultural heritage. Often, new pieces are added to old buildings, but why not invert the formula? In this case, the main hub of the Cyclorama is combined with a nearby museum to revive its own life while creating new opportunities in the process. View more options at www.modernpreservation.com.
