2021 Arkansas's Most Endangered Places Media Page

Preserve Arkansas’s 2021 Most Endangered Places list includes a Greek Revival landmark with statewide significance, Little Rock’s oldest municipal golf course, and the home of an Ashley County physician.

The announcement took place on May 5 in front of the former Woodruff Elementary School in Little Rock, which was included on the 2017 Most Endangered list but is now being rehabilitated to serve as apartments and restaurant space. The Most Endangered Places Program began in 1999 to raise awareness of historically and architecturally significant properties facing threats such as demolition, deterioration, and insensitive development. Preserve Arkansas solicited nominations from individuals and organizations throughout the state. The list is updated each year to generate discussion and support for saving the places that matter to Arkansans.
