Abstract: The purpose of this research is to provide a recommendation on how historical buildings in Addis Ababa should be preserved for the future generations. Urban regeneration is not being practiced due to governmental policy clash, lack of attention, biased focus on modernization rather than maintaining the traditional form of the architectural design. These are some of the causes for the historical buildings to be ruined; whereas they have economic, social and historical benefits. To this end, this research used both qualitative and quantitative research methods by using questionnaires and interview. It was conducted in Addis Ababa, Arada Sub City where most of the historical buildings are found. It also used Random Sampling Technique and selected thirty educated citizens to share their experience about how they perceive the historical buildings. In addition, two organizations were interviewed to find out how historical buildings are being protected as heritage sites.
