Members-Only Tours

Preservation Sacramento hosts members-only tours throughout the year. These tours are followed by a no-host social event that gives members a chance to meet each other and many on the Board of Directors. The members-only tours are led by some of Sacramento’s most prominent architects, contractors, developers, and property owners who are involved in interesting projects. Some tours focus on historic buildings, but some feature quality urban infill projects.

If you are interested in attending a members-only tour, please consider becoming a member of Preservation Sacramento. If you are working on an interesting project and would like to host a members-only tour, please contact Preservation Sacramento to schedule a tour by filling out the form below.

Preservation Sacramento members toured the Southern Pacific Railyard Shops Buildings on April 28th. The buildings are at the heart of the planned Railyards infill development project. The buildings will serve as the economic and social hub for the proposed project.

Friday, October 16th Marshall School

This historic building has been the subject of some speculation lately about its future as an upcoming adaptive reuse project. In February, 2015 the Sacramento Bee opined in this article about possible futures of the now vacant building.
