3. Historic Surveys (Determinations of Landmark Eligibility)

Historic resource surveys identify and document places that are important to Fort Collins’ history. Using research, photos and maps, surveyors evaluate each property’s age, architecture, and connections to significant people, events or cultural trends. The results help determine whether a property may qualify for historic designation at the local, state or national level.

Surveys completed recently are listed below. To request copies of current or past survey reports, contact us.
