Tuesday, November 12, 7:00 PM – “Preserving Historic Lansdale”

This program, presented by LHS President Pat Rieker, will feature some of Lansdale’s iconic buildings and include a discussion of local efforts to preserve them. Since the summer of 2023, LHS members have asked the borough council to consider several measures to protect and preserve historic buildings, and have since worked with borough staff to develop a citywide registry of such properties.

All programs are held at Lansdale Borough Hall, One Vine Street, Lansdale. Admission is free, but donations are appreciated.
