Preserving Bethlehem Steel Plant and Other Endangered Places

I am an conscious optimist. I recently gave up life in Philadelphia to return to my hometown where I am privileged to be working for an organization that is helping to aid in the preservation and interpretation of one of the National Trust's 11 Most Endangered Places in America (www.nationaltrust.org/11most/list.asp?i=154). I find it essential to continue to study and work on "remaining in the present." I am fascinated by the industrial history of the U.S. I think it is essential to use our global neighborhood to work together instead of against each other.

Congratulations on your significant work helping to preserve history and thanks for calling attention to the importance of it! I too am concerned with preservation thru architecture and artifacts and truly enjoyed the link to the national trust organization. I think it's so important for future generations to have a chance to view these places and have some insight into our rich historical past.
