What We Do
Since 2008, we have helped lead efforts to permanently protect historic homes in Wilson County and have been at the forefront of many rehabilitation projects in the historic community.
Preservation of Wilson provides leadership in the revitalization efforts of Wilson County’s unique architectural heritage. As stewards of Wilson’s historic buildings, we actively promote historic, architectural, and culturally significant properties.
“With just a single stroll down historic Nash street, one gets a sense of an old world gone by…it is up to our community to preserve these properties…”
