This illustrated report summarizes the findings of a 1979 ACHP study on the contributions of historic preservation activities to urban revitalization. The data were derived from studying four historic districts - Old Town in Alexandria, Virginia; The Strand in Galveston, Texas; the Savannah Historic District in Georgia; and Pioneer Square in Seattle, Washington. The report summarizes the esthetic, economic, and social benefits of historic preservation in each district. 

The ACHP is building a data platform that will accelerate and improve the consideration of historic properties in infrastructure project planning. By integrating information about historic properties with other geographical information, the system will help planners reduce and avoid impacts to historic properties by factoring this knowledge into early decisions about project siting. 

On September 23, 2016, the Department of the Interior, Department of Justice, and the Department of the Army issued a joint letter to Tribal Leaders committing to a broad review and consultation with Tribes on how Federal decision making on infrastructure and related projects can better allow for timely and meaningful Tribal input. This Report, Improving Tribal Consultation and Tribal Involvement in Federal Infrastructure Decisions, is the product of this government-to-government consultation and comments received from fifty-nine Tribes (and eight organizations representing Tribal interests) in October and November 2016. It reflects the start of a continuing nation-to-nation consultation that is needed to ensure that infrastructure projects are sited in a manner that lives up to the United States’ obligations to Tribes.

The Presidio of San Francisco is a National Historic Landmark District (NHLD) listed on the National Register of Historic Places. When the Presidio passed out of Department of the Army hands due to a base closure process in 1992, the former military installation became part of the National Park Service's (NPS) Golden Gate National Recreation Area and became available for other uses, creating both opportunities and challenges. The Presidio Trust, a federal corporation, was created in 1997 as a governing body to guide the fate and future of this resource.

The Advisory Council on Historic Preservation has approved an exemption that would relieve federal agencies from the requirement of taking into account the effects of their undertakings on the Interstate Highway System, except with regard to certain individual elements or structures that are part of the system.
