Have an endangered historic place in your community? Nominate it for our annual Most Endangered list!
Landmarks Illinois is now accepting nominations for the 2023 Most Endangered Historic Places in Illinois, our longest-running annual advocacy program that calls attention to historic and culturally significant sites across the state that are threatened with deterioration, demolition or inappropriate development.
Since 1995, Landmarks Illinois has asked preservationists, community leaders and concerned citizens throughout the state to nominate threatened or endangered historic properties for its annual list, the Most Endangered Historic Places in Illinois. The purpose of the list is to focus attention on sites threatened by deterioration, lack of maintenance, insufficient funds or inappropriate development and to bolster local advocacy efforts and build support for each property’s eventual preservation. The Most Endangered Historic Places in Illinois list also draws attention to important policy issues that affect these properties and historic properties throughout the state.
Nominations for the 2023 Most Endangered list are due January 17, 2023.
