The Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation has its “Places in Peril” program , and the National Trust for Historic Preservation has its annual 11 Most Endangered Historic Places list . The initiatives serve to raise awareness on threats to historic resources in Georgia and nationwide.
Now, the Historic Savannah Foundation has its own initiative of the same ilk. HSF launched a Savannah Endangered Places initiative on Jan. 6, aiming to identify and preserve historic resources at risk of demolition, neglect or inappropriate development within the city, according to an HSF press release on the initiative.
“It gives us the opportunity to have a conversation with people in our community and for the community have conversation with us, and the conversation is about preservation,” said HSF President and CEO Sue Adler in an interview.
HSF will accept nominations for the list on a rolling basis, and the nomination process will be “ongoing” with no deadline. Nominations can be submitted through a form on HSF’s website .
