Let’s pretend that you’re approached by someone who says, “I’ve heard of adaptive reuse of older buildings. Can you explain to me why it’s better to reuse them than to start all over with a brand new structure?”
I know we’ve covered this ground before, but I’m looking for a Tribune column idea for next week or perhaps the week after. Readers who are well versed in this notion, please comment … and remember, we’re not talking about specifics, just the general merits of adaptive reuse for the less cognizant among us. Thanks in advance.
