The
Eleven Most Endangered Historic Places
in Nevada
Las Vegas High School
|
Using the model
of the National Trust for Historic Preservation, Preserve Nevada
releases a biannual Eleven Most Endangered Places list. After soliciting
advice from individuals, organizations and agencies throughout the
state, and collecting information concerning the many threatened
and saved sites throughout our state, the Board of Directors of
Preserve Nevada pick sites deemed most deserving at the time. Eleven
is hardly enough to cover the state and we welcome suggestions for
future lists. The goal of these lists is to bring attention to significant
buildings, sites and landscapes that face a threat. Like the national
list we hope to gather support for the effort to record and preserve
the history of our unique state. Nevadans are proud of their heritage
but many of our new residents are unaware of the richness of the
state's past and the threats our historic resources face now and
in the future. Preserve Nevada hopes that the Eleven Most list will
be a way to appeal to natives and newcomers alike to rally around
our history and preserve at least a piece of our past for future
generations.
