Newsflash: APT NYC 2013
The Association for Preservation Technology International (APT) is pleased to announce a Call for Abstracts for APT NYC 2013, taking place in Times Square from October 11-15, 2013.New York City has been a worldwide destination for centuries, which has forged a unique urban, cultural heritage. From a preservation standpoint, NYC has recently exceeded its peak 1970s population after decades of decline.

Abstract submissions are welcomed from architects, engineers, academics, conservators, consultants, planners, curators, landscape architects, developers, contractors, historians and students directly involved in the application of methods and materials to maintain, conserve, and protect historic structures and sites for future use and appreciation.To review the four Conference tracks or to submit an abstract before February 28, please visit http://www.aptconference.org.Lisa Stott Conference Marketing & Technical Engagement Manager Association for Preservation Technology International (APT) marketing@apti.org 217/331-2926 (direct) Join us in New York City for the world's premier conference for preservation technology!
