[quote=Anonymous]Is your house historic? If so, then you can potentially apply for historic tax credits (state and county) to offset the cost of restoring windows. Restoring windows is expensive (think $2+K per window). That said, windows are the "eyes of the house" and you'll never be able to find the equivalent wood that was probably used on your original home (old growth forest trees). If you restore, they'll last for another 50-75 years, especially if you get storm windows.[/quote]
