Love Your Historic Windows
The National Trust for Historic Preservation wants you to love your older and historic windows!
Original windows not only help define the architectural style of homes and buildings that matter, they are an integral part of the character of the neighborhoods and downtowns that we all love. Take a moment today to share some window love with the world, be it for your house, a gem down the block, or a find on your favorite Main Street.
The best part? You can get involved in three easy steps and, when you're done, your photos will automatically appear in the slideshow you see above. So, happy sharing and please come back and contribute often – there are a lot of windows out there!
