About the Griffin Awards
Each year, PSABC presents awards to outstanding projects and people that further the goals of historic preservation in Asheville and Buncombe County. Any person, company, or organization interested in historic preservation is invited to submit a nomination. The winners are honored at an annual awards ceremony recognizing the property owners and the skilled craftspeople, contractors, and architects that contributed to the project.
Awards are given in the following categories:
- Adaptive re-use
- In-fill construction within a historic district or neighborhood
- Preservation
- Rehabilitation
- Research, publication and education
- Restoration
- Stewardship
*** Please note that while PSABC understands the need to update historic buildings for new uses and is eager to celebrate creative preservation solutions, successful projects make efforts to retain historic materials such as windows, flooring, woodwork, and other character-defining features. If you have questions about your project’s eligibility for a Griffin Award or would like to receive free technical preservation support, contact Elisabeth at elisabeth@psabc.org.
