The Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation is seeking nominations for its 2027 Places in Peril, an annual program that identifies and raises awareness for Georgia’s most endangered historic places, giving them visibility, support, and a pathway to preservation.

Program Details

Places in Peril is designed to raise awareness about Georgia’s significant historic, archaeological and cultural resources, including buildings, structures, districts, archaeological sites and cultural landscapes that are threatened by demolition, neglect, lack of maintenance, inappropriate development or insensitive public policy.

Sites are nominated by the public and selected based on their significance, the level of threat they face, and the potential for community support and impact. Since its inception, Places in Peril has brought critical attention to over 200 sites across the state, with over 95% still standing today.
