Harold Bubil covers the architecture happenings in Sarsota on his Herald Tribune Blog. Sarasota is just 1/2 hour north of Englewood but has much more of a solid foundation as far as builing history. The question on these panels was more preservation of existing buildings (and a new modern movement) vs. new green building designs and systems which is where we'll need the most guidance. However, we will take a trip into Sarasota to specifically view its architectural past for ideas. Since I unfortunately could not attend, I don't know if green building was part of the discussion at all. I am, however, for preserving old buildings- that's what we've been doing in Brooklyn these passed few years.
