Preservation and Progress
Saturday, June 2nd, 2018
9:00 – 10:00 AM, EDT
1 LU/HSW
Program Description:
Bardstown, KY is the historical birthplace of Bourbon distillation in Kentucky, and is the seat of its present renaissance. As such, it is the ideal microcosm in understanding the myriad issues embodied by the Adaptive Reuse and Historical Preservation of buildings. Issues of cultural continuity and appropriation, economic development and its perception, economic drivers of building reuse or demolition, and the role of nostalgia in community identity.
The Preservation and Progress presentation will be led by Dixie Hibbs, Bardstown Historian, Activist, and Author. Ms. Hibbs has published over a dozen books, including: Bardstown, Arcadia Publishing, 1998, ISBN 978073859916. She will be talking about the changing economic roles the town has undergone over its history, and the adaptation of its strong historically stylistic housing stock in the town’s current cultural renaissance.
Learning Objectives:
Toward New Visions: Preservation in Our Time
Saturday, June 2nd, 2018
10:00 – 11:00 AM, EDT
1 LU/HSW
Program Description:
Historic preservation professionals are rapidly retooling their skillsets to address the challenges posed by climate change and growing social inequality. Together, these trends promise to reshape built environments throughout the United States. This talk explores strategies for limiting the effects of both trends while suggesting the potential for new approaches to preservation to foster development of more humane, more resilient, more sustainable communities.
The Toward New Visions: Preservation in Our Time presentation will be led by Daniel Vivian, Associate Professor and Chair, Department of Historic Preservation, College of Design, University of Kentucky.
Learning Objectives:
Old Buildings, New Forms*: Design Strategies in Adaptive Reuse
Saturday, June 2nd, 2018
11:00 – 12:00 PM, EDT
1 LU/HSW
Program Description:
Adaptive Reuse and the re-appropriation of historic buildings is not a new phenomenon. As a grand example dating from 1575, Michelangelo renovated the Roman Baths of Diocletian, putting this ruined bathing facility back into use as a church dedicated to the Pope. Historically, adaptive reuse of existing buildings has occurred at all scales and have included everything from simple dwellings up to large public works. Bardstown and Louisville, KY present a robust microcosm of similar, though perhaps smaller scaled, architectural interventions.
Adaptive reuse of buildings is also a significantly sustainable method of building production. Putting existing building material back into service significantly reduces life-cycle costs and embodied energy. Formally, current Adaptive Reuse research is focused upon a spectrum of levels of intervention: from the cosmetic to the wholesale wrapping of historic building fabric. Early strategic design decisions heavily impact the final product, its resultant look, and its usefulness. Often, the results are striking due to the project’s strong juxtaposition of new and old building fabric.
The Old Buildings, New Forms: Design Strategies in Adaptive Reuse will be led by Chris Manzo, AIA, LEED AP, Architect and Educator. He will be talking about the role early design strategies have on positively impacting the success and outcomes of Adaptive Reuse projects.
Learning Objectives:
12:00 pm: Lunch at Pat's Place in Downtown Bardstown

What is Next on Distillery Campuses?
Saturday, June 2nd, 2018
1:30 – 3:00 PM, EDT
1 LU/HSW
Program Description:
In the spring of 1936, the Willet family broke ground on the Distillery at the family farm, just three short years after the repeal of prohibition. Throughout its history, additional bourbons have been introduced, as well as buildings added to the campus. In 2011, a new visitors’ center was dedicated. This campus tour and presentation will highlight both the historical tradition of bourbon distillation and the modern tradition of public representation of this history to tourists. We will visit the distillery site, walk the campus trails, and review the eight buildings currently under construction. Most of the modern interventions are for the expressed purpose of accommodating the growing tourism industry, thus putting back into use, buildings originally intended for different purposes.
The What is Next on Distillery Campuses? presentation will be led by the staff of Willett Distillery, and Charles Keyes III, AIA. Mr. Keyes is currently working on several architectural projects on the Willet Distillery Campus.
Learning Objectives:
3D Scanning Technology of Historic Buildings: Drones and Mapping Techniques in Adaptive Reuse Projects
Saturday, June 2nd, 2018
3:00 – 5:30 PM, EDT
2 LU/HSW
Program Description:
3D Scanning is not a new technology, yet it is just in recent years that it has starting making its way into popular culture and the AEC community. By understanding a few key concepts of this technology, AEC professionals can leverage 3D Laser scanning, including the use of drones, to provide greater value to their clients. During this course, you will become familiar with 3D Scanning that is primarily laser based, as well as non-laser based scanning, both of which are used to generate 3D point clouds. We will also demonstrate the use of drones in aerial data collection, and the use of these captured images that are stitched together to create 3D point clouds and ortho-photos. The session will also address various applications within the AEC industry of 3D point clouds generated from scanning, and the key factors that affect the quality, accuracy and reliability of point cloud data.
The 3D Scanning of Historic Buildings: New Techniques and Uses workshop and presentation will be led by Josh Ayoroa, Assoc. AIA, LEED AP and Guy Simmons, AIA. They will demonstrating the use of 3D scanning equipment and be talking about the role 3D scanning is playing in the documentation of historical structures, and the integration of this new technology into Building Information Modeling.
Learning Objectives:
1. Define 3D Scanning and the use of Drone image captures
2. Explain three main constraints of 3D laser scanning: Occlusions, Distance and Point Density
3. Identify what Point Cloud is
4. Describe different applications of point clouds for the AEC community
5:30 pm: Wrap Up and Adjourn
6:00 pm: Dinner at The Rickhouse Restaurant in Bardstown
