The planned changes here at MyHometownOhio are more than cosmetic.  As time progresses, we plan to bring a more relaxed and conversational approach to sharing news about the world of preservation, revitalization, heritage tourism and smart growth in Ohio.  In the two and a half years that we have been blogging, for instance, we have only infrequently mentioned any background information about the Preservation Ohio office -- who we are, what we do, and -- most importantly -- where we see Ohio preservation going.  From politics to pop culture, the Buckeye State is a unique beast, and we’re going to take the chance to share our take on what makes it tick.

We are launching, therefore, a regular feature called “Perspectives on Preservation.”  These segments will include everything from coverage of preservation events around Ohio to a “look behind the scenes” at our office, statewide events, and significant local issues.  We’ll make it easy for you to share your comments in response to our views, both on MyHometownOhio and also on The Ohio Preservation Network (coming soon at: www.ohiopreservationnetwork.com).

So -- go with us as we take an ongoing look at the people, places, news and views that make up the world of preservation in Ohio.
