Established in 1983 in Lexington, Kentucky, Cultural Resource Analysts, Inc. (CRA), has been recognized as one of the most respected, full-service cultural resource consulting firms in the United States. Everything we do is rooted in our intimate understanding of cultural materials and the historic built environment, our client-focused approach, and our working knowledge of the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties, Sections 106 and 110 of the National Historic Preservation Act, the National Environmental Policy Act, and the guidelines and expectations of entities such as the National Park Service and State Historic Preservation Offices.

Upon this foundation and supported by our multidisciplinary team of archaeologists, architectural historians, and historic preservation specialists, CRA has successfully worked with hundreds of public and private sector clients across the country, providing professional insight and expertise in the development of strategies designed to meet cultural resource and historic preservation needs. Our commitment to high-quality work and expertise in the field is best reflected in the fact that most of our work is from repeat clients and referrals who recognize the benefit of our ability to effectively and efficiently meet the needs of a project.

Since our founding, we have been fortunate to assist hundreds of communities, organizations, agencies, and professionals across the country in meeting their cultural resource and historic preservation needs. With over 40 years of business, we look forward to building on our history and would welcome the opportunity to help you achieve your goals.
