Endangered Places Program Luncheon
Tuesday, February 5, 12:00-1:30 pm
Join us for the reveal of the 2019 Endangered Places, the announcement of the 2019 SAVED sites, and a presentation by Mike Buhler. Since 2010, Mike has served as executive director for San Francisco Heritage (SHF), a nonprofit committed to preserving and enhancing San Francisco’s architectural and cultural identity. In 2013, SFH initiated a program to celebrate and recognize the city’s iconic and longstanding legacy businesses; many of which were facing the threat of eviction and closure due to increased rents. What began as a registry of legacy bars and restaurants has since developed into a Legacy Business Historic Preservation Fund, which provides grants to both legacy business owners and property owners who agree to lease extensions with Legacy Business tenants. Mr. Buhler will share San Francisco’s story of saving it’s “intangible heritage” to inspire Colorado cities to advocate for their own legacy and heritage businesses.
Monday, February 4, 2019 - Thursday, February 7, 2019
