Historic Bowling Green homes sought for May walking tour

BOWLING GREEN — The Bowling Green Historic Preservation Commission is celebrating National Historic Preservation Month with a self-guided walking tour of historic homes and buildings.

Property owners will need to provide basic details about their home or building. Those who sign up will receive a yard sign indicating History Lives Here, which will help bring awareness to local preservation and recognize properties included in the self-guided walking tour throughout May.

Sign up a property online at buff.ly/41niMW8 or by calling the planning department at 419-354-6218 or emailing planning@bgohio.org by April 12.

The commission has created a handout with resources to help research a historic property. It is located at www.bgohio.org/436/Historic-Preservation-Commission.

The commission was established in 2019 to help preserve, promote, and educate the community about local history and historic buildings in Bowling Green.
