Bahrain is gifted with numerous cultural relics, thanks to its ancient civilization. No question, the worth and significance of these relics are acknowledged by virtue of the wide number of archaeological expeditions targeting Bahrain in respect of their multifarious missions. These expeditions have uncoated that Bahrain is rich with historic buildings and sites. These sites have proved to be worth preserving, for a grand summation of which dates back to 3000 years ago [1]. With the era of Smart Cities and the fast development of Engineering Concepts, IT and ICT sectors, a new-fangled conception has come to surface, absorbing a substantial attention for a while. Older buildings and historic sites have special needs, so to help the economy to find the right materials to illustrate probably its value [2]. Seeking economic advantage and historical legacy, it has been urgent to promote the concept of Smart Cities using the high level of documenting technology; as demonstrated in this research. Alliance between the documenting and the renovation of historical projects helps in accelerating economic growth in Bahrain. Moreover, it has positive impacts upon social and environment, which influence positively the economic in Bahrain. In the era of smart technology, the proposal of alliancing between the modern technology in documenting and the renovation of historical projects is illustrated in the research. With the flourish of the manifold usages of computational technology; Smart implementation has been employed in drafting and documenting architectural images; Victor and Raster Images, data collection and retrieval; data base, saving and editing photos for authentication purposes; Photo Finish. The research discusses the application of the new series of programs have emerged in documenting the renovation progress using of these smart systems. Moreover, the research end with presenting guidelines in documenting the historical building to maximizing economic growth issues in Bahrain.
