Historic Seattle Preservation Survey and Database Catalog Project - Welcome!
Historic Seattle’s Mission
Historic Seattle is a nonprofit organization dedicated to architectural preservation. We fulfill our mission
- by engaging citizens and policy makers in considering the value of historic buildings,
- by offering tours and public lectures on a wide variety of neighborhood, architecture, and preservation issues,
- and by acquiring and rehabilitating historic buildings.
Historic Preservation Survey and Database Catalog Project
Historic Seattle has developed a database catalog highlighting the historic and heritage preservation themed collections of books, periodicals, photographs, reports, etc. that are maintained by organizations such as yours throughout the Pacific Northwest. Please consider taking one-half hour out of your schedule to complete the following survey. Your participation in the survey will help create a clearinghouse connecting a vast amount of important information to the entire population.
Thank You
