On this week’s edition of Austin Monitor Radio, we check in on the current state of historic preservation with Cara Bertron, the city’s deputy historic preservation officer. Monitor reporter Jessi Devenyns and editor Elizabeth Pagano sit down with Bertron to talk about new historic districts, strides in historic preservation, and of course, how preservation will fare under the city’s revised Land Development Code. It all goes down below, where the entire show is embedded for your listening pleasure.
