Most Endangered for 2020 - 21
Every day, all year long, HKC works to revitalize historic structures that give our community visible connections to its past and lends irreplaceable visual character to the streetscape. Once a year, we announce the Most Endangered, a list of historic places on the brink of extinction and too important to lose. These places shape lives, and when they’re gone, they leave a void that can’t be filled. See our 2020-21 list HERE.
HKC is working remotely. Please contact us if you have any questions or need additional information at hkcf@historickansascity.org.
