Would you like APL to talk to your club or group?

The Abilene Preservation League has a presentation designed for luncheon groups, neighborhood associations and practically any group that is interested in Abilene history. We would love to come show it to your group. It runs about 20 minutes, but can be expanded or otherwise tailored to your group's needs. To schedule a visit, send us an email.

From time to time there are buildings we would like to highlight because of their value to the community as examples of good architecture or their context in our city's history. Sometimes the owner has asked us to help find out more about the building's history. Sometimes there is a threat of the property being demolished or lost to neglect. We believe a public discussion of the value of an older building is helpful to the economic development of the community. Check this page occasionally for listings. There is no charge for this service.

"My home at 1365 Sayles Blvd., is listed through Marian Whitehurst. She knows my desire to have it sold to someone who would appreciate/restore/preserve it in a manner respectful of its architecture and deserving of the neighborhood. It’s a vintage, all-masonry, Southern Vernacular-Cotswold Cottage, designed by a local architect in 1936 for the Satterwhite family. Picture below. My family purchased the property in 1961, and until my mother’s death in 2007 was her primary residence."
