Hello everyone! My name is Pam (or Pamland) and I am the Social Media Maven for the Cincinnati Preservation Collective.

We are a group of designers, historians, property owners, community organizers, and preservationists that came together in the fall of 2013 with a mission to positively and proactively advocate for our historic infrastructure. Cincinnati has many historic districts and structures and nationally-renowned architecture and we feel it is so, so important to stand up for our history and preserve as much of it as we can.

We hold many monthly events including meetups, popups, and photowalks to engage with our communities and raise awareness of our mission and activities. We have also participated in our annual Bockfest Parade (Winning FIRST PLACE in 2014!), street festivals including Cincy Summer Streets, Build the Block, and Second Sunday on Main.

Along with the Cincinnati Preservation Association, we have been in a heavy battle this year to #SaveTheDennison Hotel which is in the Main Street Historic District in Downtown Cincinnati. It has been an exciting and daunting time where we have been learning a lot about the legal process of saving a building that others want to demolish. Some other successes of ours include the Davis Furniture Building in Over-the-Rhine and the Bavarian Brewery in Covington, KY.

We are so excited to announce the Rust Belt Coalition of Young Preservationists Takeover of our beloved and historic Cincinnati, OH!

Roughly three days of meetups, exploration, activities, roundtable discussions, picnics, tours, hashtags, rides on our NEW streetcar the Cincinnati Bell Connector, and The Preservationist Pale Ale brewed locally by Taft’s Ale House!

There will be many more updates in the coming weeks regarding sleeping accommodations and how to sign up for specific tours but for now we have created an Eventbrite in order to get an idea of how many visitors to expect! So SIGN UP ASAP!

We couldn’t be more excited to show you our Queen City of the West! So sign up now!
