Tonight’s timely program encourages residents to explore Sabin’s more modest but equally precious architectural heritage in light of the recent application for the Irvington Historic District. Our wonderful community builds its bright future in the context of an illustrious past that is the focus of this evening to which you are all most cordially invited.

We warmly invite our neighbors from the Alameda, Boise, Concordia, Eliot, Grant Park, Humboldt, Irvington, King, Sullivan’s Gulch, Vernon, and Woodlawn neighborhoods to join us for the social hour and the presentations. Much of what will be said is equally applicable to your fine communities. Y’all come!
