Since 1976, Historic York, Inc. has encouraged the conservation of York County's architectural history by preserving sites such as the Cookes House, the Willis House (click for image), the Kirk House, the Forry House, Cross Mill, the Codorus Ironmaster's House and the one-of-a-kind Haines Shoe House, all important buildings within York County’s built heritage. Most recently, Historic York, Inc. assisted with the restoration of the Hanover Junction Railroad Station and the Farquhar Park Bandstand (click for image).

Historic York, Inc. provides the technical expertise, the motivation and the inspiration to preserve York's architecture
