Timeless Treasures: Preserving Cultural Heritage Through Architectural Conservation
Carpenter Hall at the Sunset Center
The eclectic architecture of Carmel-by-the-Sea is as distinctive and memorable as its many other attractions. From the cottages of early builder Hugh Comstock to stone structures such as poet Robinson Jeffers’ Tor House, Carmel’s rich architectural tradition is part of its legacy and charm. Landmark buildings such as the Pine Inn and Harrison Memorial Library serve as reminders of the city’s cultural history and preserving them maintains a sense of permanency and heritage.
