Historical Signif'icance. National Register of Historic Places The National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) evaluates a property's historic significance based on the following four criteria: Criterion A (Event): Properties that are associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of our history. Criterion B (Person): Properties that are associated with the lives of persons significant in our past. Criterion C (Design/Construction): Properties that embody the distinctive characteristics of a type,period or method of construction, or that represent the work of a master, or that possess high artistic values, or that represent a significant and distinguishable entity whose components may lack individual distinction. Criterion D (Information Potential): Properties that have yielded, or may be likely to yield, information important to prehistory or history. In addition to historic significance, an NRHP evaluation includes a determination of physical integrity, or the property's ability to convey its historic significance. Integrity consists of seven aspects: location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling, and association. Criterion A (Event) To be potentially eligible for individual listing on the NRHP, a structure must usually be more than 50 years old, must have historic significance, and must retain its physical integrity. Since the building was constructed approximately 79 years ago, it meets the age requirement. However, it is not associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of our history, at either the local, state or national level. Criterion B (Person) No known historically significant person is associated with the building. 4
