Monuments, facades, bronze doors, stone entries, decorative embellishment and sculptural attachments add to the overall grace and integrity of notable buildings, cemeteries and parkland due to their inherent beauty and historic significance. Preserving architecture and architectural objects typically requires aesthetically harmonious and philosophically congruous compatibility with surrounding architecture and display locations. Given the scale of treatment and potential impact to adjacent elements, treatment phases must be thoughtfully planned and carefully implemented. Particular attention is required for appropriate anchoring and setting of unstable or detached elements to ensure public safety.
