Historic Macon Foundation's vision is to lead Middle Georgia as the premier preservation organization.
Our Mission is to advocate for Macon’s historic and architectural heritage, to facilitate preservation efforts in our community, and to educate and inspire appreciation for our unique city.
Imagine: tomorrow’s lifestyle in yesterday’s places.
Historic Macon Foundation and College Hill Corridor present a guide to living in Macon's hip and historic College Hill district. Thanks to incentive programs for historic preservation, owning a home in College Hill is cheaper than renting! Own an architectural treasure and live in a place that you care about.
What We Do
Historic Macon Foundation enacts the priorities of preservation-minded volunteers in our community. We provide our members with up-to-date, complete and accurate information about economic development, smart growth and historic preservation so that we can work together with our political leaders to revitalize our beautiful city. To accomplish this goal, we regularly call on our members to advocate for the historic places they love. We provide the tools and advice that makes the most of your interests in these projects. In addition, we work to reviatlize entire working-class neighborhoods: saving the homes, preserving tolerant mixes of income levels and culture, eliminating crime and increasing homeownership. Lastly, we help facilitate urban revitalization by developing rehabilitation plans and securing tax credits for adaptive reuse projects like loft housing.
