OUR MISSION STATEMENT

The Queen City’s history is built on the stories, cultures, memories, and identities of the city’s people and places. The Rountree Council for Preservation’s goal is to continue the dialogue and education about the city’s rich variety of historic buildings and districts. We hope to support and advocate for historic preservation, neighborhood revitalization, ensure realistic placemaking in the community (and multifaceted citywide preservation) through thoughtful enduring design and people-centered planning. Our desire is to see the community grow into something with longevity through the observation of other successful cities and our community’s input.
