The Phoenixville Historical Architectural Review Board (HARB) encourages the economic development and revitalization of the Phoenixville Downtown Historic District while attempting to minimize the burden on long-term property owners.

The HARB helps to protect the architectural and cultural heritage of the Phoenixville Downtown Historic District by considering the effects of proposed exterior changes to buildings and properties within the district and commenting on the appropriateness of those changes.
