Our Mission

The mission of the Greenwich Preservation Trust is to educate and advocate for the preservation of our historic and cultural resources through preservation projects and developing preservation incentives in planning land use policy and regulations.

In 2008, the Greenwich Preservation Trust was formed with a simple purpose in mind --  to preserve our rich historical heritage. This is the first time a Town of Greenwich-wide effort to promote an inclusive program of historic preservation has been established.

The Greenwich Preservation Trust is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit corporation currently seeking new members and donations to support our on-going projects.

Our historical resources are rapidly disappearing! please join us in our efforts to preserve the historical and cultural heritage of the Town of Greenwich.
