Abstract

HISTORIC PRESERVATION IN TEXAS is the comprehensive statewide historic preservation plan for Texas. It is the purpose of this document to analyze the historic patrimony of the state, inventory those architectural, historical and archeological properties which are the tangible links with the state's heritage, and make this information available to the public so that through planning and preservation, that heritage can be permanently safeguarded. The future of Texas is clearly linked to its past. What the state is—the outlooks and attitudes which characterize it—and what it will become in the future are the logical development from its roots and traditions. Historic preservation in Texas is an important part of the growing public awareness of and concern for our total environment. The state's historic patrimony is one of Texas' vital resources, equally as important as other natural and human resources. This preservation plan has been developed for the people of Texas as a most important guide in the protection and development of this resource.
