Biographical / Historical
The Ballinger Award commemorates a restoration that best exemplifies the traditions of Palm Beach’s original houses and the architects who designed them. First presented by the Preservation Foundation in 1988, the award was founded in honor of the late Robert I. Ballinger Jr., former chairman of the Palm Beach Landmarks Preservation Commission. Mr. Ballinger worked tirelessly for many years to instill pride in the island’s architectural heritage and completed one of the first restorations of a Mizner estate.
