The Landmark Society 2014 Preservation Awards

Join us on Sunday, November 16 at 3:00 p.m. for one of the most anticipated events of the year:  The Landmark Society’s 2014 Annual Awards.  This special ceremony will take place in Rochester’s historic City Hall, the handsomely restored Richardsonian Romanesque landmark located downtown at 30 Church Street.  Built between 1885 and 1889 as the Federal Court House and Post Office, this iconic  building was rehabilitated in the late 1970s after many years of neglect and re-opened in 1978 as the new City Hall.  The effort to revitalize this once-vacant building received major support and guidance from The Landmark Society and has been honored with several major awards over the years.

A highlight of the calendar year, the Awards Ceremony will precede the Society’s Annual Jubilee celebration, scheduled one week later on Sunday, November 23.  The Awards are given to individuals and organizations in our nine-county area that have made outstanding efforts in the preservation of their homes, public buildings, historic properties, and landscapes.

This event is free and open to the public. Check back, we will be announcing winners in anticipation of the event!
