Eligible properties in Phoenix may be listed on two different historic registers - Phoenix History Property Register and National Register of Historic Places. Although the process for listing properties differs for each register, the eligibility criteria are the same.
Listing a Property on the Phoenix Historic Property Register
In Phoenix, properties listed on the Phoenix Historic Property Register receive Historic Preservation (HP) or Historic Preservation-Landmark (HP-L) overlay zoning from the Phoenix City Council. Properties listed on the Phoenix Historic Property Register are subject to historic design review and are also eligible for the city's historic preservation financial incentives. To determine whether a property is eligible for listing on the Phoenix Historic Property Register, it is important to thoroughly research a historic property and to evaluate its historic significance. Two documents that can help you with this effort are delineated below:
- Researching a Historic Property
- Procedures for Requesting Historic Designation of an Individual Property or Neighborhood
- Historic Designation Polices Adopted by the Historic Preservation Commission
