As Eldoret City rapidly modernises, its rich heritage buildings, particularly those reflecting its Boer and British colonial past, are facing demolition to make way for commercial towers.

• The iconic colonial Lincoln Hotel has been demolished, symbolising the erosion of Eldoret's historical identity.
• Key heritage sites like the Wagon Wheel Hotel and the historic Soy Club are undergoing renovations, attempting to balance modernisation with preservation.
• Areas like Kihuga Square, once a vibrant social and trading hub for Africans during segregation, are losing their identity to urbanisation and commercialisation.
