There are plenty of historic renovations going on in Richmond, and there are plenty with modern HVAC. Historic preservation requirements typically are concerned with the exterior appearance and materials; thus, eliminating the window units would be a plus.

October 6th was Waitangi Day - a public holiday here in Aotearoa.
Wish all my work-weeks were like this week... start work on Monday for the year, go back Tuesday, day off Wednesday, back for Thurs and Fri and then the weekend! Woohoo!
So I got in a solid 37km workout over rolling hills. Beautiful day, quiet roads, and got to know a couple of new albums we have just bought and i ripped onto my MP3.
My legs were tired on Thursday!
