Some barns can be retrofitted to meet the needs of modern day agriculture. Structural changes and mechanical upgrades are made to accommodate new equipment and technologies. Other barns undergo complete and creative transformations. These buildings find new life as homes, businesses, community centers or cultural institutions. These adaptive uses or retrofits not only lengthen a barn's life, they also provide the community with visual links to their agricultural past.	Period Log House Restoration circa 1837
