REMEMBER HISTORIC MACON IN YOUR YEAR-END GIVING
As the year draws to a close, we take time to reflect on Historic Macon’s successes of 2025 and thank everyone who has stood with us — our extended family — as we forge a stronger Macon through preservation.
We announced the new addition to our Macon’s Fading Five list, and our restoration project on Lamar Street — a former Fading Five site itself — will soon be on the market. Also, we began work at the former Korner Kupboard site in the Beall’s Hill neighborhood, planning to turn it into two apartments.
During this season of gratitude, we thank you for your support, which makes our work possible. We’ll put your donation to work locally, revitalizing our community through the power of preservation. Your year-end donation helps us achieve our goals. You can do so HERE.
If you’re considering a gift of stock, call our office at: 478-742-5084, ext. 101.
If you’re not a member of Historic Macon, join today or give a membership gift! We have 11 different levels to choose from. Look HERE for more details.
Thank you for your support!

We appreciate funding from the Linda Harriet Lane Fund at the Community Foundation of Central Georgia. And our programming wouldn't be possible with the support of our members. Thank you!
Our mission is to revitalize communities by preserving architecture and sharing history.
One of the benefits of your property residing in a National Register Historic District is preservation incentives. Historic tax credits allow citizens to undertake rehabilitation projects at a reasonable cost and Historic Macon is here to walk you through that process.
A key part of Historic Macon's mission is education. We tell the stories of people who make a difference in our preservation community, as well as those pioneering visionaries whose shoulders we stand on today. Read more about them HERE.
