1. What is a Naperville Heritage Society Historic Structures plaque?

The Naperville Heritage Society Plaque Program was started in 1970 to encourage Naperville property owners to recognize their properties that are: historically significant, architecturally significant, tell a story about Naperville, or tell a story about the people who lived/worked there. To date, nearly 150 homes, structures, and sites have been plaqued.

2. Does my home or business qualify?

Please contact the Development Associate at 630.305.3535 or grazulisk@naperville.il.us for more information on the Plaque Program.  The Plaque Program Resources guide also offers information to help you get started.

3. Will the plaque restrict remodeling or renovations I plan to do?

The plaque will not interfere with an owner's rights in making changes or improvements to their property. The issuance of a plaque does not reflect or offer tax credits or abatements for rehabilitation projects or properties.
