It was not until 1979, after the death of Mao Zedong and the end of the Cultural Revolution, that archaeological work recommenced in earnest and an excavation report was finally prepared by those archaeologists who had survived the turmoil. The lessons learned from the Dingling excavation has led to a new policy of the People's Republic of China government not to excavate any historical site except for rescue purposes. In particular, no proposal to open an imperial tomb has been approved since Dingling, even when the entrance has been accidentally revealed, as was the case of the Qianling Mausoleum. The original plan, to use Dingling as a trial site for the excavation of Changling, was abandoned.

Most of the buildings such as the Fortune Centre and the GSM buildings were old buildings renovated new, which allows the whole urban area to shed its historical atmosphere to become a more modern industrially developed place. Analysing the visibility of Sculpture Square, its surrounding isovist spaces are limited by its neighbouring high rise buildings, hence limiting the Sculpture Square building to be seen from a wider visual field in the city. The space syntax of Sculpture Square could be improved by widening the partitions between the low rise buildings of Sculpture Square and the high rise buildings in order to retain its significance as a historical site to its place in the modern city.

The technical complexity to transform the station in a concert room required the collaboration of a large team. It was needed to analyze the criteria for the transformation and recovery of the building, preserving the existing historical site and discussing architectural, material, structural and technical questions, required for the consolidation of a concert room according to the requirements of acoustic and environmental isolations. Besides the concert room, the station is also used for public transportation.

The Provo Canyon Guard Quarters is an important historical site, preserving the conflict held during the Utah War, a bloodless standoff between the federal government and the LDS Church which lasted from 1857 to 1858. These guard quarters were one of three fortifications built by the Mormon people in response to the threat they perceived from the federal government during the Utah War. The Provo Canyon Quarters, due to its location, was not likely to be involved in any battles and was assigned a mere ten men to keep up the defenses. After the Utah War this fortification served as a station to observe Native American activity until the end of the Black Hawk Indian War in 1868, after which the Guard Quarters have served little purpose.

North facade with the main portal Novo Celje (; ) is a late Baroque mansion in the settlement of Novo Celje in the Municipality of Žalec west of Celje in the Styria region of Slovenia. The mansion was built between 1752 and 1755 by a local nobleman, Anton Gaisruck, who had bought a decaying late medieval hunting mansion called Brutnberg (known locally as Plumberk) that stood on the same location. He used some elements from the old Celje Castle for its construction, causing further deterioration of this important historical site. In the mid-19th century, the mansion was bought by the Styrian nobleman Joseph Ludwig Hausmann (Slovenized: Jožef Ludvik Hausmann), the father of Fanny Hausmann (1818–1853), who is generally regarded as the first female poet to write in Slovene.

State of Michigan Historical Site marker commemorating the site of Stroh's Brewery of Detroit The end finally came on February 8, 1999, when Stroh announced that the 149-year-old brewer was selling its labels to the Pabst Brewing Company and Miller Brewing Company. John Stroh III, now company president and chief executive, said of the decision to sell: "Emotionally, it was an extremely difficult one to make, knowing that it would impact our loyal employees, and recognizing that it would mean the end of our family's centuries old brewing tradition that had become, in essence, an important part of our identity." The Stroh family lost over $700 million, decimating its fortune. After the company's dissolution in 2000, some Stroh brands were discontinued, while others were purchased by other breweries.

In the past, the hamlet has been home for a Mac's Milk (Formerly Beckers) as well as a Family Run Hardware Store, a small restaurant as well as a small mechanic shop, most of which closed down in or around the time that the plans for the 407 development came to realization. The Hamlet of Brougham is now the current site of the Highway 407 ETR/Ontario Highway 7 Bypass as part of the 407 expansion through Eastern Durham Region. At this juncture, the 407 leads from the Hamlet, and runs parallel with Highway 7 until it reaches Bowmanville. To the north of the Hamlet, there is the historical site of Thistle Ha', which consists of a plaque on the side of the road; and an old Historical Hotel that has fallen into disuse.

The institute was re-established and relocated as the Fundación Instituto de Inmunología de Colombia. The Hospital was acquired by the City of Bogotá in 2015 and currently undergoes renovation. Most of the delay has been due to legal issues surrounding the will of the donor of the land and the legal suits between the city of Bogotá, and the Cundinamarca Department to determine ownership and the negotiations to avoid the eviction of squatters who occupied the building after its closure in addition to unsolved pensions owed to former employees. While some of the buildings cannot be demolished because of their designation as cultural and historical site the multinational firm COPASA has been hired by the city to demolish part of the complex and build a new complex.
