City of Walla Walla Historic Preservation Survey

The City of Walla Walla received a Certified Local Government (CLG) grant from the Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation (DAHP) to prepare a historic preservation plan to guide historic preservation efforts in the city for the next 10 years. This survey will help the consultants, Northwest Vernacular, gather data about Walla Walla’s history and historic places that matter to the community.

Historic preservation is about ensuring the heritage and historic places that enrich our lives remain for future generations. Preserving historic places (buildings, structures, objects, sites) highlights what’s already valued in Walla Walla by both residents and visitors.

A historic preservation plan is the result of a process through which a community establishes its vision, goals, and priorities for the preservation of its historic resources. A historic preservation plan is a city planning document that will guide the city’s historic preservation program and provide a roadmap to achieving its goals.
