ABSTRACT
This paper presents a case study of the restoration of an historic three-story brownstone residence in the northeast United States. Years of deterioration created an unsafe condition. Financial constraints did not allow removal and replacement of the exterior veneer with new stone. Restoration techniques utilized synthetic patching materials along with facade stabilization. These methods enabled an owner to restore the building without public grants. The restoration was completed in 1996.
