At our 2018 Winter Membership Meeting, we were fortunate to have 2 speakers present to our membership. First, Debra Bach, who received a Masters in Preservation, did her thesis on our own Cherryhurst and its potential as a City of Houston Historic District. Following Debra, Lorelei Willett from the City of Houston Planning & Development Department's Historic Preservation Office presented on how a neighborhood becomes a historic district. Below are both presentations.
