Louisiana Landmarks Society is proud to announce the return of the New Orleans’ Nine Most Endangered List. As in previous years, Louisiana Landmarks Society is enlisting the help of neighborhood organizations, preservation and civic organizations, and our own membership for nominations of most endangered properties in Orleans Parish. This grass-roots approach has proven invaluable in compiling our annual list.
Submissions can be individual structures, groups of structures, or even something physical and emblematic of New Orleans’ landscape, such as the street tiles featured on the 2005 list. The challenge again this year will not be assembling the list, but rather narrowing the list from among the many worthy nominees. But we need your help. Your observations of the City’s endangered sites are invaluable to the continued success of the New Orleans’ Nine Most Endangered program. The greater the participation, the more aware Landmarks, and thus the community, becomes aware of the challenges we face.
At present we are assembling our Selection Committee for nominations, and we will announce the 2010 New Orleans’ Nine in May as part of Preservation Month.
Please note that the deadline for nomination submissions is Tuesday, March 29, 2011.
