Why join
The Historic Preservation Alliance?

This past September we were proud to celebrate our 25th Anniversary and give much credit to our members who generously contribute to our success and share a passion for our history and passing it along.

Our Impact

Often people live in a city packed with history passing by buildings with stories most resident never get to hear. That's where HPA steps in!

What makes HPA Unique?

We provide leadership, education and advocacy to save our diverse and irreplaceable heritage and to revitalize our neighborhoods. We rely on the generosity of our members and supporters to carry out our mission.
