We were reminded of the ongoing project by the Loyola University Graduate School students as they continue their research on our community's architectural designs to see if Sauganash qualifies for the National Registry of Historic Places. This could offer tax benefits for those who choose to remodel their homes following their guidelines. As more information is collected it will be placed in the design booklet.
