Happy New Year from Columbus Landmarks! In 1976,

Happy New Year from Columbus Landmarks!

In 1976, people just like you came together to save the remaining arch from the overnight demolition of the iconic Union Station. Today - 45 years later - the arch stands in McFerson Commons Park as inspiring public art and an important reminder of that critical call to action: our city's architecture is worthy of preservation.

Since then, Columbus Landmarks has worked to preserve and protect the historic fabric of our city. We are an organization of people just like you who understand that buildings, landscapes and public art provide a sense of identity and community, inspire creativity and enrichment, and contribute to greater equity, sustainability, revitalization and economic development.

But we can’t do our work without your financial support. We are an organization that is funded by generosity. Every dollar makes a difference as we inspire others to be good stewards of our city and to proudly take the lead in preserving our buildings and neighborhoods.

Columbus Landmarks year-end appeal raises funds that support our mission through our daily operations, instead of specific restricted projects. Please select the link in bio and make a tax-deductible gift today to ensure that Columbus Landmarks can continue the vital work of advocating for historic preservation and quality new design in 2022. Please help to build an architectural legacy for future generations!

“Preserving a building is preserving the DNA of

“Preserving a building is preserving the DNA of our city."
- Rita Fuller-Yates, Columbus Landmarks Advocacy Chair

Preservation is not only about the beauty of architecture - it's also about cultural history and the American story.

The 1935 South Dormitory at Columbus Public Health is an important part of a historic campus that served blind students from around the state from the 1870s through the 1950s. The Old Ohio State School for the Blind was home to a progressive and valued institution of learning and living. Its beautiful buildings - including this one that is threatened with demolition - are an important physical reminder of our community's legacy of compassion.

Why tear down beautiful architecture? Why continue to tear down the American story? Why should Columbus lose value in being part of the historic footprint of America?

As Advocacy Chair of Columbus Landmarks, it is my belief that preserving a building is preserving the DNA of our City. I am proud to be a part of an organization that passionately believes in the power of preservation and is working hard to make it happen!

'Tis the season to be reminded that we are a community that cares. Let’s remain connected to our past so we can move forward in a better way. The dorm served us well in the past and can continue to serve others in need of support, today and in the future.

Please make a tax-deductible donation today so that we may continue our work of historic preservation.
