What do an Art Deco movie theatre, a digital archive of cobblestone buildings, a do-it-yourself owner of a Queen Anne/Eclectic house, and a former high school auditorium-turned-performing arts center have in common? All were recipients of Preservation Awards from The Landmark Society of Western New York in 2020.
Each fall, The Landmark Society presents several awards to projects, individuals, and organizations who, through their dedication and hard work, have helped to promote historic preservation in our nine-county area. With the start of a new year, The Landmark Society’s Awards Committee is seeking nominations for its 2021 Preservation Awards. Award nominations are welcome from Monroe, Genesee, Livingston, Ontario, Orleans, Seneca, Wayne, Wyoming and Yates counties.
