This is a great example of preservation at its best. It also recognizes the fine work of staff and restoration crew members who have transformed research and people's aspirations for this property into reality. The Honor Award is the Trust's annual program to identify organizations and individuals whose projects demonstrate outstanding dedication to excellence in historic preservation. Winners are judged on achievements in the preservation, rehabilitation, restoration and interpretation of America's architectural and cultural heritage.
