For more than 35 years, the National Trust for Historic Preservation’s list of America’s 11 Most Endangered Historic Places has spotlighted important and threatened historic places across the country. Since its first publication in 1988, the list has helped to save hundreds of places that are intrinsically linked with the American story—places such as Angel Island Immigration Station in San Francisco Bay, Civil Rights landmark Little Rock Central High School in Arkansas, revered Modernist icons like the soaring TWA Terminal at New York’s JFK Airport, Native American cultural landscapes like Bears Ears in Utah, and President Lincoln’s Cottage in Washington, D.C. While placement on the 11 Most list itself does not provide legal protections, we are proud of the fact that fewer than five percent of listed sites have been lost.
