By 2030 there will be one million new Marylanders

How will they remember us?

The state's population is projected to grow by 1,000,000 new residents over the next 20 years and the development that will accommodate the houses, schools, businesses, and roads that will service these new residents has the potential to dramatically alter the character of our existing communities. Which aspects of our heritage - which buildings, which traditions, which objects, which sites - will we leave for future generations?

The Maryland Historical Trust is leading an 18-month long planning process called PreserveMaryland to understand the issues affecting historic resources and preservation programs, and to identify strategies for addressing them. The success
of this process depends upon us hearing honest and diverse opinions about the efficacy of existing programs, the financial and technical issues facing owners of historic properties, and the popular and political perceptions of historic preservation.
