The Providence Preservation Society (PPS) was established in 1956 to respond to the proposed demolition of a number of 18th- and early 19th-century houses on College Hill. Unlike many historic preservation organizations which were formed to preserve a particular building, PPS has always been an advocate for neighborhood revitalization. From that small neighborhood group, PPS has grown into a multifaceted citywide preservation and planning organization.
Our mission is to support and advocate for historic preservation, thoughtful design, and people-centered planning.

If you value these things, along with livable, walkable neighborhoods, a vibrant downtown, and beautiful parks and open spaces, then PPS needs you. Find the right opportunity to get involved below.
