    This presentation focuses on a short history of the Commission and a review of current activities and projects.

  • Water, Water Everywhere –
    Subtitled “How the Enforcement of Federal Historic Preservation Regulations Helped Save Grand Forks,” the presentation gives an overview of early flood recovery and how it was affected by the presence of federal aid.

  • The Near Southside Historic District –
    This presentation provides background for the historic district and, through pictures and narrative, gives a tour of the various architectural styles in the district.
Consulting
Commissioners and staff have some expertise in preservation and rehabilitation of historic buildings. If you are contemplating changes or restoration work, we will be happy to help you discover the best way to complete your work while retaining the historic significance of your historic property.
