The City of Columbia and its Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) is excited to announce the preparation of a Historic Preservation Plan for the community. The Historic Preservation Plan will include a discussion of various historic contexts, property types found throughout the city and recommended strategies for additional identification and documentation of historic architecture around town.
The HPC held a public meeting on Sept. 10, 2024 to begin the process, and another onFeb. 19, 2025. We appreciate all the valuable input given. The latest draft of the plan is under the Documents tab at the right side of this page. Feedback is still welcome; submit your comments and questions and complete a five-question Visioning Survey below. A final public input meeting will be held this summer. Details will be posted here once they are confirmed.
This project is being funded by a grant from the Missouri Department of Natural Resources through the National Park Service’s Historic Preservation Fund.
Pennsylvania consultant, David Taylor, was selected to prepare the Historic Preservation Plan. Mr. Taylor has been a preservation professional for more than 30 years and has worked throughout the eastern states, New England and the Midwest. He has also assisted communities throughout Missouri with planning for the preservation of historic architecture in Joplin, Lee’s Summit, Jefferson City, Cuba, Ferguson and Moberly.
Columbia presently has a variety of individual buildings listed in the National Register of Historic Places, along with several historic districts and one archaeological site. The HPC has also conducted several grant-funded historic resource surveys throughout the community. More information about these can be found on our website: https://www.como.gov/boards/historic-preservation-commission/
