Auburn buildings honored for historic preservation efforts
AUBURN â The Eckhart Public Library and the Auburn City Steakhouse have received Outreach Awards for historic preservation.
ARCH Inc., a historic preservation non-profit in Fort Wayne, has been presenting historic preservation awards for 42 years, but in 2020 the awards include something new.
The inaugural Outreach ARCHie Awards this year make a specific effort to recognize the top historic preservation projects regionally. Traditionally, the ARCHie Awards have focused on Allen County, where ARCH was founded in 1975 and where much of its work has been focused. But as ARCH has grown, it has come to serve all of northeast Indiana.
