Endangered Properties List

Is there an at-risk building in your neighborhood you would miss if it were gone?

It might be a community icon or...

a character-defining row of houses

Each year the Preservation Alliance for Greater Philadelphia publishes an Endangered Properties List to bring attention to significant historic resources threatened by demolition or neglect.  These properties are nominated by you -- the public, neighborhood advocates, preservation professionals, community organizations and Alliance members. 

The list aims to raise the public’s awareness of  vulnerable properties and to influence lawmakers who help form, uphold and promote preservation ordinances and incentives throughout the Philadelphia region. 

Be an advocate for the special places in your neighborhood that deserve attention and support.  Nominate a threatened historic property to our list. 

Click here to fill out our online submission form.

Preservation begins at home and in your neighborhood. Neighborhood treasures help define a community.  Please join us in recognizing and protecting the important places that make Philadelphia special.

To request a printed submission form, or if you have any questions, contact endangered@preservationalliance.com.
