National Register of Historic Places
The National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) lists the nation's most significant spaces and places, and BVL HPR specializes in the research, architectural evaluation and report compilation necessary to gain National Register status for your property. BVL HPR has a strong record of successfully guiding nominations through review by the South Carolina State Historic Preservation Office and National Park Service, with experience ranging from individual properties and historic districts to large-scale cultural landscapes and World Heritage nominations.-
Individuals, organizations, and communities pursue National Register designation for a variety of reasons. Listing can formally recognize a property’s historic significance, open the door to certain preservation incentives and funding opportunities, and provide an important framework for documenting and honoring places that matter to a community.
You may consider pursuing National Register listing for:
Formal recognition of a property’s historic significance
Eligibility for certain federal and state historic tax credit programs
Access to certain preservation grants and other funding opportunities
Documentation and recognition of historically significant buildings, sites, landscapes, and districts
Recognition of places with cultural, community, or ancestral significance
-
Whether you are a developer exploring historic tax credit eligibility, a property owner seeking historic recognition, or an organization documenting a significant place, BVL HPR guides clients through the National Register process from initial evaluation through final listing. Our team assesses eligibility, conducts the necessary historical and architectural research, prepares the nomination, and works directly with the State Historic Preservation Office and National Park Service throughout the review process.
