Preservation is for Everyone.

The mission of Quincy Preserves, Inc., is to foster awareness of and to promote appreciation of the historic architecture of Quincy, Illinois, and Adams County and to encourage active membership involvement in the recognizing, protecting, maintaining, and displaying of these structures.

About Quincy Preserves

Starting as an outgrowth of the Quincy Society of Fine Arts in the mid 1970’s, Quincy Preserves has encouraged owners of historically and architecturally significant structures to restore and maintain them to their original condition. Since that time many homes and buildings have been preserved. This movement continues throughout the entire city.
Quincy Preserves has provided financial assistance toward preservation and/or restoration work at the Washington Theater, Woodland Cemetery, the Dr. Richard Eell House, Villa Kathrine, John Wood Mansion and the Gardner Museum. Donations are made to the Quincy Public Library to expand its collection of preservation books, magazines, and videos.
