African American Historic Preservation Trail Project Pilot
February 26, 2013

The UEDC is pleased to announce the African American Historic Preservation Trail project pilot, created with input from a distinguished stakeholder committee comprised of historic preservation sites and regional policy makers, is kicking off with a panel discussion, hosted by Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission, on:

DATE: TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 26
TIME: 5:30 PM to 7:30 PM
SITE: African American Museum
701 Arch Street

The African American Historic Preservation Trail project was conceived in November 2010 at a public participation meeting hosted by Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission (DVRPC). Uptown Entertainment and Development Corporation (UEDC) is collaborating with DVRPC to create a panel discussion that examines the nexus between the economic and social impact of neighborhood improvement, historic preservation and cultural enrichment.

Please join us during Black History Month 2013 for a probing discussion and the public unveiling of 26 months of organizing and planning as we enter the implementation phase of the trail pilot which will be used as a model for a citywide and national tour of African American Historic Preservation sites.
