Historic Resource Surveys

Historic resource surveys examine architectural styles and features, building materials, alterations, history, and significance. Front Range has completed more than 10,000 intensive survey forms in Colorado. Surveys include photographs, forms, maps (increasingly utilizing GIS technology), and reports. Public meetings to discuss project goals and present survey results are also a part of surveys. Projects may include entire urban neighborhoods or focus on other types of historic resources.

Neighborhood surveys examine properties within specified urban areas to determine historic district potential and evaluate the significance of individual resources. Front Range conducts neighborhood studies in cities and towns throughout Colorado. Front Range also has surveyed historic resources such as military installations, highway projects, pipeline construction, hydroelectric power facilities, farms and ranches, schools, homesteads, dude ranches and motels, industrial resources, water system structures, railroad-related properties, recreational resources, government facilities, and industrial complexes. Many of the projects have included working with the Section 106 process of the National Historic Preservation Act.
