City of Pittsburgh Historic Review Commission Accepting Nominations for the 2004 Historic Preservation Awards

January, 28, 2004

Each year, in celebration of National Historic Preservation Week, the Historic Review Commission of Pittsburgh hosts the Historic Preservation Awards Ceremony in which we honor building owners (individuals or organizations), architects and general contractors involved in outstanding interior or exterior building renovation/restoration projects or new construction that compliments the historic character of a neighborhood.

The 21 st Annual Awards Ceremony will take place on Friday, May 7, 2004 at 12:00 Noon in City Council Chambers. Mayor Murphy and City Council Members will be invited to take part in the ceremony.

Preservation Week is the time to show how our community is working to preserve the unique historic places that we know and love.

The Criteria for nominating a project is below, including a link to dowload a Nomination Form (in .pdf format). Feel free to nominate more than one project for consideration by the Historic Review Commission. Please submit all nominations and before and after slides no later than Friday, March 26, 2004.
