33rd Annual Preservation Achievement Awards

Sharing A Fuller History

Donate Today

The Boston Preservation Alliance has spent the summer zig-zagging around the city, framing shots, and sharing stories of Boston’s best preservation projects. Learn of Boston’s oldest buildings and where to find them, see a brutalist block become Roxbury’s living room, and hear the importance of preserving Boston’s LGBTQ history. We are excited for you to hear these stories as we celebrate Boston’s best preservation projects and honor John B. Cruz, III and Marita Rivero. 

These films capture the stories of the city we love and the people that make Boston an incredible place to live, work, and visit. We know you’ll be moved by the voices of a variety of Bostonians.

Scroll down the page to see more details about each of the award-winning projects and watch each of the individual project films. 

The reviews are in:

“…the award winners were particularly impressive. You have set a new standard for preservation recognition in this city.”

“…the bridge between Preservation and community has rarely been expressed and rewarded so well.”

“The production, stories, and interviews were great–everything hangs together beautifully. 
You are making me miss Boston even more than I already do.”

Congratulations to our 2021 Preservation Achievement Award Winners!
