Beginning in 1996, the DC Preservation League has announced annually a list of Most 
Endangered Places to draw attention to Washington, DC’s, historically, culturally and 
architecturally significant places that may be threatened with ill-advised alteration 
or demolition through neglect or abandonment. DCPL solicits nominations for its annual 
list from individuals and organizations throughout the city. DCPL’s education and 
landmarks committees evaluate the nominations and advise the Board of Trustees on 
their final selections. In many cases, a task force is created to raise awareness and 
develop possible preservation solutions for the endangered resource.
