Preservation League Announces Call for Nominations for Seven to Save Program

ALBANY—Now through Friday, November 1, the Preservation League of New York State is accepting nominations for its Seven to Save program. The Preservation League has been helping New York State communities retain, rehabilitate and reuse threatened sites through its Seven to Save Endangered Sites Program since 1999. According to officials, building on partnerships with groups and individuals, Seven to Save listing has been a key catalyst to the successful revival of dozens of buildings, downtowns, neighborhoods, and landscapes endangered by threats such as lack of regulatory protections, neglect, imminent demolition, and incompatible development.

This call for nominations will result in the listing of seven at-risk sites. Sites selected for the Seven to Save program will receive enhanced attention from the Preservation League’s experienced advocacy and technical assistance staff from January 2025 through December 2026. The Preservation League remains active with Seven to Save sites beyond their initial listing as needed.
