A local preservation nonprofit that describes its work protecting historic places in Nashville, including through easements.
Historic Nashville, Inc. describes itself as a nonprofit that works to protect and preserve historic places in Nashville, and its website mentions programs such as preservation easements. Owners of older homes in Nashville may find that walls, fences and landscape changes face extra review or special expectations in historic districts or on properties with easements.
We are an independent company and are not part of Historic Nashville. Requirements differ by district and property, so we encourage owners to confirm what applies with the right local office or organization before starting work. We help prepare sketches, material samples and descriptions that reviewers often want to see, and we can build with natural stone, brick and other materials that suit historic settings. The official site is a good place to learn about preservation in Nashville.
