The Dana Crawford Award honors individuals and organizations who have made a significant contribution toward preserving Colorado’s built history. The evening’s namesake is Dana Crawford, a pioneer in saving historic buildings that were viewed as derelict eyesores and in proving that their restoration makes economic sense. Each year Colorado honors the efforts of individuals, projects, and organizations that have made exemplary contributions to the saving of Colorado’s built heritage. Starting in 1988 with the State Honor Awards and adding the Dana Crawford Award in 1990, we have recognized accomplishments in the areas of preservation, rehabilitation, promotion, philanthropy and leadership.

Join us on May 22, 2012, for Colorado Preservation, Inc.’s 22nd Annual Dana Crawford Award Celebration, as we honor David and Stephanie Tryba and their incredible achievements within Colorado’s prominent architectural and preservation communities.
This year, the Dana Crawford Award for Excellence in Historic Preservation is being presented to David and Stephanie Tryba and their incredible achievements within Colorado’s prominent architectural and preservation communities. While David transforms historic buildings and sites into active human-scaled modern contextual urbanism with his firm Tryba Architects, Stephanie provides invaluable leadership and support to multiple preservation minded organizations, serving on various boards and committees. Together, David and Stephanie renovated and restored the William G. Fisher Mansion to serve as Tryba Architects’ office and their family residence. The Trybas’ graciously host numerous events for philanthropic organizations at their home each year.
