Why Old Places Matter: Heritage, Belonging, and Place
Tom Mayes, General Counsel, National Trust for Historic Preservation

Why Do Old Places Matter? How does saving and reusing the old places in our communities support our sense of well-being? Thompson Mayes, author of “Why Old Places Matter: How Historic Places Affect Our Identity and Well-Being,” explores the way people’s experience of place, and the way the body responds, help us flourish.
