An art deco highrise in eastern Mississippi continues to deteriorate, as does one of the last remaining Negro League baseball stadiums, in New Jersey. A 1,300-year-old cultural site in Guam is threatened by U.S. Navy construction plans, and the character of Connecticut's scenic Merritt Parkway is at risk.
These sites are among those recognized by the National Trust for Historic Preservation as "America's 11 Most Endangered Historic Places" for 2010. The annual list highlights examples of our architectural, cultural, and natural heritage at risk due to damaging development, funding failures, and other threats. Many of this year's buildings are already listed on the National Register of Historic Places — a designation that honors their value but provides no direct protection
