In some other countries, former residences of famous people may also face demolition, but governments, social organizations and individuals make their own efforts to save them.

Japan

Government helps protect cultural properties

In 1996, Japan launched a registration system for tangible cultural properties or structures that have historical or academic value and have a history of more than 50 years. They can be registered after ratification by experts from the Agency for Cultural Affairs.

The Japanese government subsidizes owners of registered tangible cultural properties through tax breaks and repair subsidies. For example, owners pay half of the expenses for maintenance and repairs, and the other half is paid by the government.

However, owners undertake the corresponding liabilities. For example, owners need to announce to the government intended changes that affect more than 25 percent of the visible surface.

United Kingdom

Heritage Lottery Fund plays big role

In London, archaic houses in red or white can be seen everywhere, and they are usually being repaired instead of being rebuilt.

The Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) was set up by the government in 1994 to provide money for preservation. Since 1994, the fund has given grants totaling approximately £4.7 billion ($6.1 billion) to more than 32,000 projects.

Although HLF is not a government agency, the Department for Culture, Media and Sport issues financial and policy directions to the organization, which reports to Parliament through the department. In addition, any organizations or individuals can apply for heritage protection to the fund.

HLF makes protection plans for heritage after assessment without the involvement of the government, and offers grants of £3,000 ($3,902) to £5 million ($6.5 billion).

France

Multiple ways of protection

In France, chances are great that you have close contact with former homes of noted people, whether you are in a big city or in a remote village. They are cherished as treasures by the French.

Former residences of famous people are listed as cultural heritage sites. France was the first country to legislate the protection of cultural heritage. Early in 1887, they issued a law to preserve monumental architectures with historical and architectural value. After that, other laws were issued to sort, manage, register and renovate those structures.

Also, the preservation and renovation of former residences of famous people are run by professional architects, who avoid the risks of government's one-sided decisions.

Third, social forces encourage getting involved in preservation, through tax policy. Funds, enterprises and individuals getting involved can enjoy tax breaks. This has led to an increase in social donations for protection work.
