Preservation Staunton
About HSF Historic Staunton Foundation is a non-profit organization promoting the preservation and revitalization of the rich architectural and historic resources in Staunton, Virginia. Staunton is a unique community of cohesive neighborhoods and a central business district with an impressive inventory of historic buildings and landscapes most dating from the City's late 19th century boom-town growth. Since 1971, HSF has promoted historic preservation through the creation of 5 historic districts, revitalization of the downtown business district, creation of a local historic preservation ordinance, technical rehabilitation support for property owners, and most recently, the development of our new R.R. Smith Center for History and Art. Successful preservation organizations lead their communities by advocating quality urban planning. HSF strives to strike a balance between programs that help the individual member with specific rehab advice and providing guidance to the community as a whole. HSF works one-on-one with property owners, provides preservation workshops, conducts public meetings, and provides staff assistance to the City of Staunton. More than 550 individuals, families and businesses support HSF through membership and volunteerism. With a strong membership base supporting its mission, HSF can continue to have a positive influence on our community's development. |
