National Historic Status

We received word from Kathryn Leonard at State Historic Preservation Office and we passed! As of 24 January we have been on the National Registry of Historic Places! In the meantime, you can learn more information by going to the SHPO website. You can also find the forms needed to apply for the tax credit.

As long as your home is contributing and it's owner-occupied you should qualify for the tax credit. Contact Lisa at poulin03@cox.net or (602) 285-1893 or Tom at tdenny2@cox.net or (602) 266-6850 if you have further questions.

If you would like to find out more about the history of your home, go to Historic Preservation. City Historic gave our association two of the Historic Home of Phoenix books to be circulated around. If you'd like to borrow the book, please contact Lisa Poulin at (602) 285-1893. Lisa also has the property tax applications and a wealth of other information from the City and State Historic Preservation offices if you'd like more information. When we first moved to the neighborhood, we took a very informational free class taught by Helen Prier about how to do research on your home and historic restoration/renovation. Her website is www.loveurbanliving.com. She offers classes under the Calendar section. The Burton Barr Libary is loaded with information about our homes, you just need to have the time to do the research.
