In 1965, when the Crane House and Historic YWCA was saved from demolition, moved, and restored to tell the story of its earliest occupants, historic preservation was in its infancy and there were no standards to guide these preservationists. Through a short introduction and tour of the Crane House and Historic YWCA, discover the Roots of Historic Preservation, putting in context some of the decisions made by the early preservationists who restored the Crane House in the 1960s.
