Posted On: May 25, 2010
YPA celebrated National Historic Preservation Month at the Kelly-Strayhorn Theater in East Liberty on Friday, May 21, 2010.
YPA unveiled its new list of the “Top Ten Best Preservation Opportunities in the Pittsburgh Area.” The list, published annually, highlights historic preservation projects with a good chance of survival and reuse. It’s a great way for communities all over southwestern Pennsylvania to celebrate historic preservation victories in the making.

YPA also released a new, groundbreaking report, “The Economic Impact of Historic Preservation in Southwestern Pennsylvania.” The report quantifies how many dollars, jobs, new businesses, and housing units have been created in the last few years through historic preservation.
