Nominations are being sought through Aug. 29 for this year’s Historic Preservation Awards. Single-family residences, apartment buildings, commercial buildings, public/institutional buildings and religious structures may be nominated in the categories of restoration, rehabilitation, adaptive use and additions/new construction. Additional awards are presented for stewardship, detail and design.
Nominations need not be in an historic district, but must be located within the boundaries of the Village and should have been created within the past five years. Interior work also may be considered in conjunction with exterior work. Nominations also are being sought for a joint award for projects that address both historic preservation and sustainability issues.
The judges’ decisions will be based upon the Oak Park’s Architectural Review Guidelines, which are based on the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation, as well as considerations of contextual and design appropriateness.
Nomination forms are available in Village Hall, 123 Madison St., by calling 708.358.5417 or by email to historicpreservation@oak-park.us. A nomination form also can be completed online or downloaded.
