June 1, 2011, Wednesday - Breakfast with a Preservationist – B.L.E.N.D. Award Organization at Mill City Museum
Time: 8:00am–9:00am
Location: Mill City Museum, ADM Conference Room, Sixth floor (enter at 710 South Second Street)
Join Preserve Minneapolis for a presentation on the B.L.E.N.D. Award, which was created to "encourage and reward builders, architects and home owners to blend newly remodeled or constructed homes and businesses into the fabric of Minneapolis neighborhoods." The principles of historic preservation foster common objectives with B.L.E.N.D. - stability of community values can be achieved by maintaining traditional environments while embracing the future. Recognizably new structures and landscapes can be designed to be compatible with architectural values of the community.
This event is free to attend.
