Preservation 101: What Does Historic Designation Mean?

You asked and we are answering!
What DOES historic designation mean?
Join us at the historic NPF headquarters for an afternoon of lunch and learning. Our panel of noted preservationists and historians will break down the differences between national, state and local levels of designation. You'll learn about the agencies and committees responsible for delegating and enforcing historic regulations and where exactly we stand in Las Vegas today.
We’ll also delve into the process of applying for and being granted historic status, explain design standards, and shed light on what can and cannot be changed about a historic building.
Finally, you’ll get the chance to ask your most burning questions as we open the floor for a Q & A session.
You’ll also have the chance to pre-submit your most challenging questions when you register.
