Historic Boulder, Inc. is a non-profit NGO based out of Pearl Street in downtown Boulder, Colorado. While we work closely with the city's Landmarks Board and Historic Preservation teams, we are the only non-government entity in Boulder working to preserve our important places through education and public outreach.

Historic Boulder was born following a battle to save precious pieces of Boulder’s past. Highland School, the Union-Pacific Depot and Central School were all threatened with demolition in 1971. Historic Boulder, organized in 1972, was instrumental in saving Highland School (shown at left) and the depot. Sadly, Central School was demolished. Out of this experience rose the urgency for a legal mechanism to evaluate historic sites. In 1974 Boulder’s Landmarks Preservation Ordinance was passed and, shortly after, the inventory of significant sites began. A county regulation allowing the landmarking of sites in Boulder County passed in 1992 and was the first regulation of its kind in Colorado.
