The Massachusetts Most Endangered
Historic Resources Program

A positive advocacy, education and "PR" program...

2025 Most Endangered Resources Program Nominations Now Open

Since 1993, Preservation Massachusetts (PM) has identified and aided in the preservation of endangered historic resources across the Commonwealth. As our core advocacy and education program, the Most Endangered Historic Resources Program allows PM to utilize its statewide visibility to spotlight places, buildings, or structures under threat, increase awareness about them, and work collaboratively with key stakeholders to work towards positive outcomes. 

Though the program is only an honorary designation, it can serve as a catalyst for action and opportunities. PM works with listed resources as priority projects, drawing upon our staff expertise, technical assistance abilities, and networks in an effort to see the listed resources and the people committed to them put on the path toward preservation.

Our Most Endangered Historic Resources (MER) Program is back in 2025 to highlight threatened buildings, structures, and landscapes across the Commonwealth. In 2025, Preservation Massachusetts will be spotlighting resources that are both historically significant and emphasize continued importance to and possibility in their communities.

Nominations are now being accepted for the 2025 Most Endangered Resource Program.
