Both historic preservation and sustainability have many economic,
environmental, and cultural benefits. Learn more about the strong
connections between historic preservation and sustainability from this
program. The City of Dubuque has had strong programs in both areas for many
years. Recently Dubuque's sustainability partnerships were featured in a
National League of Cities report.
