Making historic preservation more effective through clear ordinances and guidelines.

The preservation of a community's historical, cultural, architectural, archeological, and social heritage can occur through an appreciation of shared history; however, historic protections are vital to ensuring that this shared history remains for future generations while still allowing for progress and development.

At ZoneCo we craft custom tailored, clear, consistent, user-friendly, equitable, and defensible historic preservation ordinances and guidelines that promote your community’s historic preservation goals.

Example Projects:

  • City of Cincinnati Historic Preservation Ordinance (2012 Preservation Award Winner)

  • Over-the-Rhine Historic District Guidelines

  • Warrenton, Virginia Demolition by Neglect Ordinance Re-Write

  • Canfield, Ohio Historic District Development Standards

ZoneCo is a proud supporter of the National Association of Historic Preservation Commissioners.
