Across the United States and beyond, historic places help to define our shared lived experience.
From fostering economic growth, to creating a sense of identity, historic places play an integral role in establishing continuity, individual identity, sustainability, community, and much more.
During this second installment of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation's "Preserving the Past, Fortifying the Future" series, we will explore the power of place and how historic spaces impact the people who live and work in and among them.
We will also travel back in time to discuss how past pandemics have re-shaped spaces, and the ways COVID-19 may change the way we think about spaces in the future.
