The Lakewood Historical Society has created a Preservation Fund.

Money in the Fund will not be used in the ordinary operations of LHS but will be used to financially assist the preservation or rehabilitation of historically or architecturally significant buildings or structures (Including fixtures) in the City of Lakewood, including residential, commercial, or industrial Properties of significance or that are located in a district or area which has historical or architectural significance as long as Properties can or do contribute to the significance of the district.

The Fund will be credited with any contributions, gifts or grants made to LHS that are specifically made to the Fund. The Fund will be credited with any income from any investment of assets of the Fund and with the proceeds received from any interest in Property owned or legally controlled by LHS obtained using the assets of the Fund.

Working to Safeguard the Irreplaceable Assets of Our Community

Lakewood's distinctive character has been created by its architecturally significant homes, historic commercial districts and idyllic parks. By continuing to link our community's past, present and future through the preservation of our build environment, we retain this sense of place as "Lakewood." Preservation, combined with appropriate economic development, is key to maintaining the beauty of our neighborhoods, retaining our high quality of life, and keeping our community vibrant.
