This paper demonstrated that identifying and preserving architectural heritage in Dar es Salaam is vital for the preservation of culture and history of the different races. The architectural designs which represent the owners and their origin, borrowing and diffusion from each other are meaningful to the cultural evolution of Dar es Salaam. The use of tropical materials and art borrowed from different culture proves special and unique character of the Dar es Salaam city. The Swahili taste which emerged as a result of racial and cultural interaction and the architectural transformation enriches cosmopolitanism. Thus, the preservation of the foreign and local architecture is the only way to acknowledge and maintain the history of the city. This is partly because it is architectural art which identifies the designer, the culture of origin, material used and social system.
