ABOUT AFORE

Afore Preservation offers historical research and preservation consulting services throughout the midwest and southeastern United States. Specializing in research, documentation, condition assessment, and preservation planning, Afore provides creative and professional assistance to individuals, organizations, historic sites, and state and local governments. We rely on a combination of primary source material, oral history, and site visits to help clients identify and document their historic resources. In collaboration with the client, Afore Preservation comes alongside communities to bring to life the stories of the places that matter most to them. We believe knowing the past helps make informed decisions for the future, which is why we rely on the history of a place as the foundation of everything we do.
