America's Most Endangered Places

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Each year since 1987 the National Trust for Historic Preservation has released a list of places they consider the most endangered in America. The number of sites included on the list has varied, with the most recent lists settling on 11. The name of the list has varied from "America's Most Endangered Places" to "America's Most Endangered Historic Places" to "America's 11 Most Endangered Historic Places."

While many of the locations listed by the Trust have been preserved—with there being some argument about how important the Trust's listing has actually been to their preservation—there have been notable losses, such as 2 Columbus Circle, which is undergoing significant renovations, and the original Guthrie Theater, demolition of which was completed in early 2007.
