About Us
We specialize in restorations that respect a building’s historic character while updating it for today’s lifestyles and preserving it for years to come. Where other developers might see a blighted structure that needs to be replaced, we see an opportunity to protect a part of history and prepare it for a bright future.
Preservation Experts
Smyth & Field specializes in projects that require careful adherence to historic preservation guidelines and historic tax credit requirements. We understand the unique challenges involved in preserving a building’s character while making thoughtful, code-compliant improvements for modern use. When you need to ensure every detail meets the necessary guidelines for historic districts and preservation tax credits, we’re the experts you can trust.
It’s in the details
Details like pocket doors, antique hardware, and original millwork and floors are just a few of the things that give a historic structure its unique character. We strive to reuse and restore original building materials wherever possible, and we’re experts in re-creating architectural elements that match the form and craftsmanship of the original.
Sustainable Renovations
It’s been said that the greenest building is the one that’s already built, and we couldn’t agree more. Transforming historic buildings to meet today’s standards requires experience, creativity, and a deep understanding of what makes each building unique. If your project is pursuing LEED certification, we bring the expertise to meet your sustainability goals while preserving the integrity of your historic building.
