tell us about your neighborhood

​​

We want to hear about the neighborhood histories and traditions you value across the city! 

​

A resource can be anything! A cultural resource can be a place where you experience community history or culture. This can be a building, a park, or a store. It can be the place where a parade happens, or a restaurant where everyone goes to celebrate big life events. It can even be something that is not associated with a specific place, like a ghost story or locally made handicraft.  

​

To tell us about a resource in your neighborhood, you can fill out our survey form or send us an email!

If you have time, we'd love to meet you for a walk around your neighborhood to hear about what makes this place special to you.
