The Evaluation of Historic Buildings
Kalman H. 1980. The Evaluation of Historic Buildings. Historic Structure Guidance Documents. Parks Canada. Ottawa, Canada
This is the second in a series of Parks Canada booklets designed for those directly involved in classifying heritage buildings. It presents guidelines for the evaluation of historic buildings. The series was prepared under sponsorship of the Canadian Inventory of Historic Building which was established in 1970 and subsequently developed into a major heritage resource center. This document describes the method of evaluating buildings. It was written for all people involved in some aspect of conservation, whether they be private citizens, professional planners, or government officials. For simplicity the booklet refers only to individual buildings and not to historic areas, but the same principles and techniques may be applied without change to groups of buildings or to entire districts.
