Pennsylvania’s Historic Preservation Awards continue
a tradition held since 1979 whereby excellence in preservation
is recognized and honored. The annual awards recognize significant
contributions in the field of historic preservation made by both
individuals and organizations. Recognition encompasses the categories
of preservation initiatives, construction and archaeology projects.
Pennsylvania’s highest honor, the F. Otto Haas Award, is
given in recognition of outstanding contributions to preservation
