Description:
The Pittsburgh History & Landmarks Foundation (PHLF), was founded in 1964 by a group of citizens who passionately believed that historic preservation, rather than massive demolition, could be a tool for renewing communities, creating pride among residents, and achieving sustainable economic development.
Recognized as one of the nation’s most innovative and effective nonprofit historic preservation organizations, PHLF works to:
identify and save historically significant places;
renew historic neighborhoods, towns, and urban areas;
preserve historic farms and historic designed landscapes; and
educate people about the Pittsburgh region’s rich architectural heritage.
PHLF is chartered to work within a 250-mile radius of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, although its primary focus is on the Pittsburgh area.
