According to City of Columbia Historic Preservation Planner Amy Moore, “If you look around downtown, it would be challenging to find a block with a building(s) that Janie hasn’t touched!” Projects for which Janie has served as preservation consultant represent more than $38 million of rehabilitation investments and include such beloved local landmarks as the W.B. Smith Whaley house, Claussen’s Bakery, Lula Drake, Hotel Trundle and its Flutter Wing, the Wade Campbell House (FemmeX), the Curtiss-Wright Hangar, McCants School, the Equitable Arcade Mall, the Ehrlich Building (Smoked), and the Hair Building (All Good Books).
