Mayor Tom Henry has recognized May as National Historic Preservation Month in Fort Wayne. He called attention to activities celebrating our history and heritage, as well as the enhancement of our community’s historic neighborhoods, buildings, and sites.
“Our community has managed to preserve much of our heritage and history,” Mayor Henry said. “Fort Wayne has a long-standing tradition of honoring our past and trying to reuse and reclaim examples of significant structures and character from our history. We understand that moving forward into our future includes honoring our past, and we know how important it is to the vitality of our city to ensure strong revitalization efforts.”
Several local organizations are hosting events and activities throughout the month. A brochure highlighting area activities along with an online Heritage Calendar may also be found on the City’s website; visit www.CityofFortWayne.org/preservation.
