Foundation For Heritage Conservation And

Our foundation is tucked away on the fourth floor of Omkar Heights in Koregaon Park. Pune has so much history, and we felt like someone needed to actually look after the old stuff before it all disappears. We aren't a giant organization with a huge budget. It’s just a few of us who really care about old buildings and local history. The office is a bit small, but it works for what we need. We spend a lot of time looking at old maps and talking to people about how to keep heritage sites in one piece. Being in Koregaon Park is nice because it’s central, though parking can be a bit of a nightmare sometimes. We don't have a PR team or anything like that. We just write reports, visit sites, and try to give advice when someone asks about preserving a piece of the past. It’s quiet work, mostly. We deal with a lot of documents and sometimes we go out into the field to see things for ourselves. It’s important to us that the history of this place doesn't just get knocked down for a new mall. We’ve been at this for a bit now, and while it’s slow going, we feel like we’re doing something useful. It’s just honest work trying to save what’s left of our heritage. Nothing more, nothing less. We just take it day by day and hope it matters. We stay busy here at Foundation For Heritage Conservation And.
