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.
