Traditional Building Conference Series – Tampa, FL

The Traditional Building Conference Series delivers focused, relevant education for architects, contractors, craftspeople, designers, building owners and facilities managers in a time-efficient format.

Join us December 5-6 in Tampa, Florida, for a two-day interactive symposium, at the Floridan Palace Hotel, where you will learn from best-in-class experts and practitioners about historic preservation, adaptive use, urban infill, classical design, sustainable design, building restoration/maintenance and traditional craft.

Tampa is a lovely city situated on Tampa Bay and the Hillsborough River. Urban parks and the Bayshore Boulevard walkway offer quiet strolls amid a city hopping with nightlife and commerce. Historic neighborhoods like Ybor City and Hyde Park are well preserved and feature home and commercial spots for dining and nightlife. Nearby tourist attractions assure us that there is something fun for the whole family when visiting this city.

and more…

Bus and walking tours planned for the conference include a visit to Plant Hall, a six- acre Moorish Revival architectural gem that was built as a fashionable railroad hotel, now serving a secondary school and the University of Tampa; Historic Ybor City- once the leading cigar-making center in America and downtown Tampa’s architecture.
