The Lower Merion Conservancy is soliciting nominations for its annual WatchList. The WatchList is a publication that brings attention to properties in Lower Merion and Narberth that are threatened with demolition, neglect, or insensitive development. The intent of the WatchList is to cultivate preservation opportunities for threatened properties by enhancing the public’s awareness of their historic importance, their value to the community, and their reuse potential.
The WatchList has helped secure some big preservation wins, including:
Historic Narberth Borough
The Barnes Foundation building
Lower Merion’s iconic cast iron street signs
Merion Train Station
Your voice is important! The Conservancy relies on its members and the general public to help it identify and prioritize important vulnerable historic properties.
