the preservation community began several years ago to adopt sustainable and green
building practices and metrics for historic rehabilitation projects. As a result, there is an
ever growing number of rehabilitated historic buildings in the United States not only
incorporating sustainable building designs but also achieving Leadership in Energy and
Environmental Design (LEED) certification. Most of these are large, architect-designed
buildings in urban settings rehabilitated for cultural and commercial uses. This thesis
explores the application of the LEED 2009 New Construction and Major Renovation
Rating System for the development of a sustainable rehabilitation plan for the modest
vernacular 1897 Jeff. Smith's Parlor Museum in Skagway, Alaska. The goal of this
research is to demonstrate how the LEED rating system might be applied to the
rehabilitation of this building and other historic vernacular buildings. / Committee in Charge:
