This year marks the 30th anniversary of Colorado Preservation, Inc., a milestone that we are proud to be celebrating! As a core program, the Colorado’s Most Endangered Places Program has been working for the past 17 years to bring awareness and assistance to historically significant and endangered properties throughout the state. In addition to the threats of neglect, deterioration, and natural weathering the state of Colorado was plagued by fire and floods this year, further threatening the great resources found across the mountains and plains. Colorado Preservation, Inc. has partnered with the National Trust for Historic Preservation and History Colorado in order to bring assistance to these damaged and historically designated properties. The purpose of the Endangered Places Program is to raise awareness of and build support for significant historic sites in Colorado that are in danger of being lost. This year we will have Listed 101 sites, ranging in styles, construction methods, and time periods, but all significant. We are proud to report that 33 of these sites have been SAVED!, while only 6 have been Lost. Each year we continue to focus on the Listed sites, furthering our education of the history of Colorado and these historic places. In addition to focusing on the List, Colorado Preservation, Inc. works to provide assistance to endangered sites that are not Listed. We are proud to be able to work within communities as issues and threats arise in order to advocate for preservation throughout the state. As we celebrate 30 years as an organization we want to take the time to thank our sponsors, donors, and partners. Without your continuous and generous support, Colorado Preservation, Inc. would not be able to continue to advance our mission. It is because of you that we are able to produce the Colorado’s Most Endangered Places List each year, lending our assistance to ensure site progress, and eventually a SAVE! I would like to encourage you to become a member of Colorado Preservation, Inc. to help us continue to Build a Future with Historic Places.
