What is HARTBomb?

“Heart Bombing” was started on Valentine’s Day 2013 by the Buffalo Young Preservationists and is now growing into a national grassroots movement.

HARTBomb 2015

HPA started it’s own HARTBomb event in 2015 to announce and draw attention to what we consider to be our Top Ten Endangered Buildings. Hale and hearty volunteers strung up handmade Valentines at 270 Albany Avenue. Our inaugural endeavors brought us great media attention including being the featured front page story on next day’s Hartford Courant and news coverage on FOX61 and WTIC-AM.
