Since 1966, the South End Historical Society has played a critical role in preserving the architectural fabric of the South End. By the time SEHS was founded, almost a quarter of the South End’s buildings had been lost to urban renewal. The Society’s work began with an architectural and photographic survey of the remaining 3,000 South End buildings. This survey formed the basis of the successful application to list the South End neighborhood as an historic district on the National Register. Since that time, the Society has played a critical role in the preservation of a number of important historical structures, including the Allen House, the Dane House, and the Church of the Immaculate Conception.
