We Believe That
buildings are art.
We are made by history…
YPA is made by a history forged by the hard working men and women who selflessly created our built environment to provide us all with an everlasting sense of place; a place where the compelling stories of our lives play out in an elaborate drama staged in a landscape of bricks and mortar, terra-cotta, steel and glass; a tapestry of materials bound together in purpose and usefulness for all time. It’s not just the buildings that we work to preserve–it’s also the stories and the histories of the people who built them.
…Providing a foundation for our future.
The Young Preservationists Association (YPA) represents and promotes younger voices in historic preservation.
