Preservation Awards

2012 Preservation Award Nominations

AAPS is now seeking nominations for the annual Historic Preservation Awards ceremony. Preservation Awards are conferred on restored properties in Alameda with historic or architectural significance. Nominated buildings may range in age from the 19th century through the 1940s, and their use may vary, including commercial properties, churches, governmental structures, single family homes and apartment houses. The awards showcase projects that preserve, restore or reuse historic property in a way that enhances its architectural character.
The awards debuted in 1998, when AAPS honored Alameda’s renovated City Hall, three restored Victorians, and two rejuvenated commercial buildings. Examples of other award recipients are the U.S.S. Hornet aircraft carrier museum, Kofman Auditorium in the Historic Alameda High School, the Delanoy Building, the Masonic Temple, the Neptune Palace Hotel, the Alameda Theatre, and the Clamp Swing building. Many residential properties have also been honored, including homes which have removed asbestos or vinyl siding and restored the original siding, millwork and windows.
Nominations can be made by filling in the handy email form below. If you prefer to fill out a printed form, a PDF format is available here.
