Relocation:
 Our
relocation program is designed to return historic homes once slated for
demolition into affordable housing for Houston. Through collaboration
with neighborhood associations, community and faith-based organizations,
city housing departments and private individuals this program offers an
economically sound solution for preserving these homes and a wonderful
tool for neighborhood revitalization and community development.

Salvage:
 Only
in cases where relocation of the house is not feasible will Historic Houston
consider salvage of the historic building materials for our Salvage Program.
With an estimated 75 TONS of building materials going into landfills as
result of demolition each year, Historic Houston is committed to salvaging
and recycling historic building materials as an economical and environmentally
sound alternative for restoring older houses while protecting the environment.
Our warehouse customers consist
of individuals as well as restoration professionals. For more information
