Phase 3 of the Harrisburg-West End Historic Resource Survey is the continuation of Phase land 2 completed in September of 2009 and September 2010 respectively. Listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1990, the Harrisburg-West End Historic District contains approximately 1,500 properties. Phase 3 is located in one large area bordered by Greene Street on the North, Eve Street on the East, Heckle Street on the South, and a jagged boundary along Metcalf Street, Heard Avenue and Gardner Street on the West. The completion of the Historic Resources Survey is a key tool for the revitalization of and reinvestment in Harrisburg-West End neighborhood. Historic Augusta listed the Harrisburg-West End neighborhood as an endangered property in 2008. Many organizations including the neighborhood association have begun to develop a comprehensive preservation plan for the neighborhood and ways to utilize preservation tools, such as reinvestment tax incentives, for revitalization to maintain the intrinsic value of this community. (From introduction.) This survey was funded in part by a 2010 Historic Preservation Fund grant to the Historic Preservation Division, Georgia Department of Natural Resources (grant number 13-10-21917) and a subgrant to the City of Augusta, Georgia (project number GA-10-001). Augusta, Georgia is a Certified Local Government.
