According to Fram (2003), conservation refers to neighborhood or district planning.
Khirfan adds ‘‘the spatial spirit becomes symbolic but free from nostalgia, contemporary but continuing from the past,collective but respectful of the individual, distinctively local but
inclusive of the diverse’’ (Khirfan, 2010, p. 324).
Thus an understanding of the various meanings and interpretations associated with heritage can contribute to providing an effective framework within which conservation decisions are made.
