Every day, all year long, Indiana Landmarks works to revitalize historic structures that give our communities visible connections to their past and lend irreplaceable visual character to the streetscape. Once a year, we announce the 10 Most Endangered, a list of historic places on the brink of extinction and too important to lose.
The list includes a beloved but deteriorating church; a rare polygonal barn; a historic Black social club; a picturesque one-room school; a rugged reminder of the industrial revolution; an early tribute to higher education; an architect-designed industrial building; a threatened Victorian neighborhood; historic fraternal lodge buildings; and a former movie palace.
Saving threatened buildings takes teamwork. You can be a part of that team. Reach out to local leaders. Let them know these buildings are important to you. And support state and local preservation groups.
