Shoreline's Significant History Open House December 10, 2013, 7-9pm, at the Shoreline Water District, 1519 NE 177th St, Shoreline.

The second of two open house events on historic preservation in Shoreline will be held on Tuesday evening at the new water district building in North City. 

The City of Shoreline maintains an inventory of historic resources in the City to help the community understand Shoreline's history and to encourage stewardship of historic sites and structures.

We will present the preliminary findings of the 2013 update to Shoreline's Historic Resources Inventory at the December 10 open house. The presentation will begin at 7:15pm. Come learn about historic structures and places in Shoreline that have the potential to be considered for landmark designation. Learn what inclusion in the inventory means for these properties and about the benefits of Historic Landmark designation.

In August 2013, the City hired historic preservation consultant, Mimi Sheridan to review buildings in the eastern part of Shoreline for their historic significance. This project is supported, in part, by an award from 4Culture. Additional partners in this effort include the King County Historic Preservation Program and the Shoreline Historical Museum.
