The conference starts October 15, 2026.

The 2026 conference takes place at the University of Cincinnati in Cincinnati, Ohio.

The organizer names historians, architects, planners, environmentalists, landscape designers, public policy makers, preservationists, community organizers, students, and scholars.

It is most useful for planning historians, preservationists and graduate students, since the program centres on paper panels, roundtables and a poster session, plus a keynote and a roundtable marking the society's 40th anniversary. Hosting at the University of Cincinnati, with tours of the Cincinnati region, gives local case-study depth, but practicing planners or developers seeking continuing-education credits or commercial contacts will find a scholarly meeting with few commercial sponsors beyond firms like McBride Dale Clarion and ZoneCo.

Attendees at academic history and planning conferences usually wear smart casual, with a blazer or dressier outfit for presentations and the evening receptions. Comfortable shoes help on the Friday tours, and Cincinnati in mid-October calls for a light jacket.
