Building History & Plaque Program

DUE TO A HIGH VOLUME OF INTEREST IN THE HOUSE HISTORY & PLAQUE PROGRAM COUPLED WITH DELAYS OUTSIDE OF THE FOUNDATION’S CONTROL, WE ARE NO LONGER ACCEPTING NEW HOUSE HISTORY REQUESTS. PLEASE CONTINUE TO VISIT THIS PAGE FOR UPDATES ON WHEN THIS PROGRAM REOPENS.

Want to learn more about the historic building? The Building History & Plaque Program provides you with a detailed history of your building and a bronze plaque to commemorate your building and acknowledge your stewardship.

The program grants you access to trained volunteers who research the ownership history of your building. You will also receive a written history based on deed transactions, city directories, census data, maps, and more.

Click here to see an example of a history. After your review the history of your building and select the wording for your plaque, the plaque is cast in bronze. The cost of an historic plaque is $450 for members, $500 for non-members.

A completed house history by the Foundation’s researchers and payment are required prior to ordering your bronze cast 7” x 10” oval plaque – click here to pay. Please allow 12 weeks for the casting and delivery of your plaque.
