Since the 1970’s, GNCB has developed structural expertise in the review, analysis, and solutions for the preservation and restoration of buildings of all types. Centered in an area rich in 18th and 19th century private, public, and religious architectural treasures, the firm provides architects and owners with structural consulting services sensitive to their program needs. The preservation and restoration group at GNCB is comprised of staff members well versed and trained in historic building analysis and conservation. With educational backgrounds in building structures and historic preservation, team members bring extensive experience as well as modern technological expertise to the specific needs of each preservation and restoration project. Being familiar with and applying the Secretary of the Interior's Standards and Guidelines for Historic Preservation and Restoration, GNCB gives each project the proper compliance review often required for historic property work.
Non-invasive structural solutions, maintenance of aesthetic architectural qualities, project phasing, cost analysis and complete bid document preparation are integral parts of the firm's capabilities. Integrating historic structural improvements while being sensitive and creative within each project’s overall requirements has become a hallmark for all of GNCB’s successfully completed designs.
