Some
of the most significant historic properties in New York State are
also the most threatened, and on the verge of disappearing. Striving
to protect our most valued resources, the Preservation League of
New York State has issued a call for help. Seven historic and visually
stunning links to the Empire State’s heritage have been placed
on a list of the most threatened properties, the most endangered
places, the seven to save. In addition to these seven properties,
the Preservation League is highlighting three other threatened
sites in New York State—two called out by our national partner,
the National Trust for Historic Preservation, and one listed on
the World Monuments Fund’s Watch List. These
seven valued historic resources are in danger of disappearing because
of insufficient funding and financial incentives, insensitive public
policies, general neglect, disinvestment, and in some cases, demolition.
Listed
in alphabetical order by county.

Originally, Seven to Save sites were announced at the end of each year. In order to re-align the announcement of the list with the calendar year during which the staff would address the issues, the League moved what would have been the listings for the end of 2004 forward to January, 2005. Therefore, there is no 2004 list.
