COMMUNITY HERITAGE PRESERVATION PROJECT
Recipient of the American Planning Association's 2003 Outstanding Project Award.
A grant from the National Endowment for the Arts has helped to enable the Philadelphia City Planning Commission to create a model program to record and document the cultural resources and diverse architectural heritage of its neighborhoods.
The City plans to redevelop and rehabilitate large areas of Philadelphia that have become blighted. This neighborhood restoration will include building demolition and the treatment of vacant lots. While it is essential that the City rehabilitate its neighborhoods, the PCPC hopes to document, preserve, and salvage the important architectural and cultural resources of these communities.
