Commercial Street Historic District Design Guidelines

2019. Commercial Street Historic District Design Guidelines. Missouri State Historic Preservation Office; City of Springfield

From the Introduction: "These guidelines are intended to provide the basis for decision making by the Landmarks Board. They are intended both to preserve the historic significance and character of the District and to facilitate economic revitalization. With guidelines for design made clear, applicants and their architects and contractors can identify requirements and work towards meeting them. They can observe the standards by which their proposed actions will be evaluated, and if denied, they can be given clear reasons for the Board's decision. These guidelines are developed from two (2) general premises: the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for the Treatment of Historic Property and the desire to prevent common errors made in preservation work." Project funding was provided in part by a Historic Preservation Fund grant to the Missouri State Historic Preservation Office administered by the State, Tribal, Local Plans and Grants division, National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior (grant number P18AF00025).
