Historic Gainesville Incorporated

Mission Statement


Historic Gainesville Incorporated is a private, not for profit organization dedicated to the advancement of historic preservation, and the dynamic community values inherent in that process.

Historic preservation, although a methodology, is informed by the community needs of the times but ever attuned to the timeless lessons offered by historically and architecturally significant buildings and community resources. Preservation is accomplished through restoration, rehabilitation, and adaptive reuse, where appropriate. HGI identifies both the needs of historic properties and the needs of the community in an effort to serve and harmonize both.

HGI accomplishes its goals primarily through preserving the physical fabric of significant historic resources; identification of resources in need of preservation; community education and outreach; and, advocacy via the judicial system.
