What makes a property eligible for the National Register of Historic Places?
A resource may be determined eligible if it meets the minimum requirement of being 50 years old or older, is a recognized architectural style, is associated with a person or event of historical importance or may yield important information about history or prehistory, and still retains integrity according to the criteria established under the National Historic Preservation Act. Determinations are made by the State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO).
