What makes a neighborhood historic—and why does it matter? Join us for an engaging evening exploring the ins and outs of historic districts. From quaint main streets to architecturally significant neighborhoods, historic districts help communities preserve character, foster civic pride, and encourage thoughtful stewardship through tools like the Mills Act and the California Historical Building Code. This lecture will also highlight Coronado’s own historic preservation program, including how to create historic districts, how property owners can benefit from designation, and what recent updates to the municipal code mean for Coronado’s future. Attendees will leave with a clear understanding of the steps involved in creating a historic district in their own neighborhood. Whether you’re a homeowner, longtime resident, preservation enthusiast, or simply curious about how communities protect their past, this talk will offer practical insights and local perspective. Join us on Thursday, November 13, at 5:30 p.m. for a wine & cheese reception followed by the lecture from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. Tickets are available now!
