About Historic Preservation Week 2025

This year's Historic Preservation Week is a celebration of Atlanta's rich architectural heritage and a call to action for its future. The theme, "Our Buildings, and the Stories They Tell," challenges us to look at older, vacant, and underutilized buildings not as liabilities, but as assets waiting for their next chapter. Through adaptive reuse, we can honor the legacy of these structures while giving them a new purpose that serves the needs of our modern, evolving city.
