Mission: The preservation foundation's primary exempt purpose is to work to preserve and protect the architectural, horticultural, urban and natural environment of the town of palm beach, florida.
Programs: The preservation foundation of palm beach's $2. 7 million beautification project at bradley park was the result of a public-private partnership with the garden club of palm beach and town of palm beach. The project activates a formerly underutilized 4. 4 acre public park located on the town's historic main street and showcases its historic and natural features. Formerly the location of colonel e. R. Bradley's beach club and personal residence, the land was donated to the town in 1946. The gilded age buildings were demolished with the exception of the historic tea house and artemis fountain. Previously consisting of mostly grass and the neglected historic tea house and artemis fountain, the refreshed park is now a gathering place and a source of pride for the community that marks the northernmost entrance to the town. The project encompasses every aspect of the preservation foundation's mission to preserve the architectural and cultural heritage and unique scenic quality of palm beach.
