Local State and National Register Nominations
Marsh and Associates can assist clients with the preparation
of local and historic district nominations, State Office
of Historic Preservation, Department of Parks and Recreation
(DPR) 523 Forms and with individual and historic district
nominations to the National Register of Historic Places.
Under the California Register, an historical resource
must be significant at the local, state or national
level, under one or more of the following criteria.
1. It is associated with events that have made a significant
contribution to the broad patterns of local or regional
history, or the cultural heritage of California or the
United States, or
2. It is associated with the lives of persons important
to local, California, or national history; or
3. It embodies the distinctive characteristics of a
type, period, region, or method of construction, or
represents the work of a master, or possesses high artistic
values; or
4. It has yielded, or has the potential to yield, information
important to the prehistory or history of the local
area, California, or the nation.
The National Register criteria are substantially similar
to the California Register criteria. Both programs require
evaluation of a property pursuant to seven aspects of
Integrity. Integrity is the ability of a property to
convey its significance.
Recent local landmark nominations include Saint Brigid
Church on 2151 Van Ness Avenue and 557 Ashbury
Street at Haight Street. National Register nominations
currently underway include the University of California
Extension Campus at 55 Laguna Street and Saint Francis
of Assisi Church in North Beach in San Francisco.
